- Comment WP:SPORT is just a draft of a guideline. You shouldn't be using it here. Rose was one of the six cover subjects for SLAM Magazine' 2006 "Punks" special. In addition, there are 530 Google News hits for "Derrick Rose" + basketball. He's already received enough significant coverage from national sources that he probably passes the general notability criteria. Zagalejo^^^ 19:10, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
