Derrick Rose has said that it would be an "honour" if he were to be selected for the World Championships next year.

The Chicago Bulls point guard is the latest NBA player to confirm that he would be willing to play for Team USA at the tournament.

The 24-year-old told reporters: "I mean, if they pick me, yeah. If they select me on the team, it will be an honour. I definitely will be on the team if [Team USA head coach Mike Krzyzewski] wants me."

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant and Minnesota Timberwolves' Kevin Love have also declared their availability for the championships.
