SHARE Ty Lawson’s ‘throwback Thursday’ picture shows off a young Derrick Rose

Even NBA players get a little nostalgic from time to time. Thursday evening, new Houston Rockets guard Ty Lawson tweeted out an old picture from his high school days.

Included in the picture were a few memorable faces. Most noticeable, at least for Bulls fans, is a young Derrick Rose.

Rose stands to the right of the picture in his No. 25 Simeon jersey.

Joining Rose is not only Lawson, but also fellow All-Stars Kevin Love and Kevin Durant.

A year younger than the other high school stars, Rose was the youngster of the group. Despite being a year behind, Rose would catch the likes of Love and Durant, all of which were selected in the 2008 NBA Draft.
