Last night, Derrick Rose went missing for a few hours when he was a no-show for the Knicks game against the Pelicans.
Sources: There are team officials, teammates and close associates unclear of reason for Derrick Rose's absence for Knicks-Pelicans at MSG.

Sources: At tip-off, Knicks still hadn't been in contact with Derrick Rose. Unclear if they've reached him — or kept trying — during game.

Eventually Rose popped up to say that he flew back to his hometown Chicago to deal with some family issues.
The day after Rose’s drama unfolded the Knicks posted and deleted this Amtrak travel ads deal on their Twitter account featuring the Knicks guard.
