Another week goes by and Derrick Rose continues to tighten his grip on the NBA's 6th Man of the Year award after yet another great performance.

The former first-overall pick has been a revelation since arriving in Minnesota. He's still a long way from his pomp when he was tearing up the court as a Chicago Bull but the 30-year old shows glimpses of the ability that helping him become the youngest ever winner of the MVP award in 201, before a series of injuries begun to wreck his career.

Rose's arrival in Minnesota was arguably Tom Thibodeau's best moment during his time with the Timberwolves and it's great to see the point guard enjoying a late career renaissance. You can still back Rose to win the NBA's 6th Man of the Year award.

Current 6th Man of the Year Award Odds:

Derrick Rose -105

Lou Williams +380

Domantas Sabonis +550

Montrezl Harrell +550

Spencer Dinwiddie +850

Dennis Schroder +1200
