New: Bulls' draft pick ticketed for driving more than 100 mph on I-88

ST. CHARLES - The newest member of the Chicago Bulls faces a court date this month in Kane County on a ticket for driving more than 100 mph on I-88. Kane County court records show 19-year-old Derrick Rose, who lives in Chicago, was ticketed by Illinois State Police on April 29. A trooper pulled Rose over in a blue Land Rover near Route 47. Rose was the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft just a week ago. Attempts to reach police or Rose's lawyer on Tuesday were unsuccessful. The Bulls confirmed they are aware Rose faces a charge. The charge, driving more than 40 miles per hour over the speed limit, is a misdemeanor that carries a maximum sentence of one year in jail and a fine. Rose is scheduled to be in Kane County court on July 11.
