Caleb Wilson passes Derrick Rose in Bulls rookie franchise feat

Chicago Bulls rookie Caleb Wilson surpassed Derrick Rose for the most points scored by a rookie in franchise history through their first nine games. Wilson reached 167 total points during Sunday's home matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers, eclipsing the previous mark of 166 points set by Rose in 2008.

The milestone comes despite a difficult 1-7 start to the season for the Bulls. Wilson also joined Allen Iverson as the only rookies in NBA history to total 150-plus points, 15-plus 3-pointers, and 10-plus steals through seven games, while ranking second in franchise history behind Michael Jordan for points scored over his first three games.
