Rose, 36, is one of the most popular Chicago athletes in recent history. He played at Simeon, and the Bulls drafted him No. 1 overall in 2008.

He played for the Bulls from 2008 through '16, missing one season because of a torn ACL that changed the course of his career. The peak of his run with the Bulls was his 2010-11 MVP season when he led them to the Eastern Conference Finals, and he was a three-time All-Star for them.

Rose finished his career with the Grizzlies last season, averaging eight points and 3.3 assists in 24 games.

Reese just finished her rookie season with the Sky and averaged 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds. She was an All-Star and was runner-up for Rookie of the Year.
