UNDATED (AP) — Derrick Rose turned back the clock Wednesday and gave the type of performance that had people projecting him as a perennial NBA most valuable player. The 30-year-old point guard poured in 34 of his career-high 50 points in the second half to lead the Timberwolves past the Utah Jazz, 128-125 at Minnesota. Rose was in tears after the game as he walked off the court serenaded by chants of “MVP! MVP!” from the home crowd. He has been derailed by injuries since he was the 2011 NBA MVP.Rose hit a basket down low with 30 seconds remaining to put Minnesota up for good. He made two free throws with 13.8 seconds left to make it a three-point game.Minnesota played without the All-Star Jimmy Butler, who sat out with what the team described as “general soreness.”
