Bulls' Rose becomes youngest NBA MVP (AP)

[The Question]

A person familiar with the decision says Derrick Rose has become the NBA's youngest Most Valuable Player and joins Michael Jordan as the only Bulls players to win the award. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because a formal announcement has not been made. That could come Tuesday, with a formal presentation before Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Derrick Rose named 2010-11 NBA MVP and assures the media that his ankle is fine.

Derrick Rose was just named the 2010-11 NBA MVP. Rose said at his MVP news conference that his ankle “is fine” and he is expected to receive his normal minutes Game 2 against the Hawks. “It’s fine, it’s fine,” said Rose. “Actually, the medicine that they gave me was great. I woke up this morning feeling great, went to practice, worked out after afterward.” The Bulls will need an explosive Rose on Wednesday if they hope to even the series. He’s considered probable, but there’s no way he sits out Wednesday.
