Overview
- The jersey will be raised in a postgame ceremony at the United Center following the Bulls’ game against the Celtics on Jan. 24, 2026.
- Rose joins Jerry Sloan, Bob Love, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen as the only Bulls with retired numbers.
- The Bulls will mark the season with four collectible figurine giveaways: Nov. 4 vs. 76ers, Dec. 17 vs. Cavaliers, Feb. 22 vs. Knicks and Mar. 19 vs. Cavaliers.
- A team video showed Rose getting emotional as CEO Michael Reinsdorf told him no one would wear No. 1 again unless his son PJ becomes a Bull.
- No Bulls player has worn No. 1 since Rose’s 2016 trade, and earlier attempts to reissue the number were reversed after fan backlash.
