Rose Denies Saying NBA Has Issue With Performance Enhancing Drugs



Derrick Rose denied through a team spokesperson that he made claims the NBA has an issue with performance enhancing drugs.

The story emerged after Bulls players were available at Sunday morning's shootaround. ESPNThe Magazine took a survey of PED use in various sports for its May 16 issue.
In it, Rose is quoted as allegedly saying this when asked to rank the problem on a scale of 1-10: "Seven. It's huge and I think we need a level playing field, where nobody has that advantage over the next person."

Though the issue has been out for over a week, it is just entering mainstream media. The story likely will have a short shelf life after Rose denied the comment.
