Derrick Rose achieved an improbable childhood dream: being selected
first overall in the NBA draft by his hometown Chicago Bulls. The
point guard was a phenom, winning the Rookie of the Year award and
electrifying fans around the world. In 2011, he became the youngest
MVP in league history. Rarely had a bond between a player and fans
been so strong, as the city wrapped its arms around the homegrown
hero. Six years and four knee surgeries later, his career was
seemingly on the brink of collapse. But Rose never believed his
struggles on and off the court were anything other than temporary
setbacks. I’ll Show You is an honest, intimate
conversation with one of the world’s most popular athletes, a
star whose on-court brilliance is matched only by his aversion to
the spotlight. Rose opens himself up in a document that is as
unflinching—and at times as uncomfortable—as a personal diary.
Detailing his childhood spent in one of his city’s most dangerous
neighborhoods; his relationships with both opponents and teammates;
the pain and controversies surrounding his career-altering
injuries; his complicated relationship to fame and fortune; and his
rise, fall, and reemergence as the player LeBron James says is
“still a superhero,” I’ll Show You is one of the
most candid and surprising autobiographies of a modern-day
superstar ever written.
