Benny The Bull Changes His Number To 99 In Honor Of Derrick Rose

Rose's No 1 jersey hangs in the United Center rafters next to Jerry Sloan's. Their mascot, Benny the Bull, has been sporting No 1 on his jersey for quite some time now. Out of respect for Rose, he's now changed his number to 99 at halftime of tonight's Lakers-Bulls game. No player in franchise history has ever worn 99.
