After impressing during a year long spell with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Rose signed a two-year, $15 million with the Pistons last summer. The point guard has made 38 appearances this season, averaging 18.4 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game - although it is believed that the Pistons will be sellers ahead of the deadline.
