Minnesota Timberwolves Ricky Rubio Will Play For Timberwolves
Ricky Rubio is coming to Minnesota after all.The Spanish point guard has agreed to join the Timberwolves next season, ending a drawn-out, delicate, two-year negotiation with the team that had many league observers believing he did not want to play in Minnesota.A person with knowledge of the agreement confirmed to The Associated Press on Wednesday night that Rubio will be here next season, given the woebegone Timberwolves a much-needed dose of good news. The person requested anonymity because neither Rubio nor the Timberwolves planned to make an official announcement while he continues to play for Regal Barcelona in the Spanish league playoffs.

He so far seems like the diva of the NBA. I mean really you enter the draft than bail because you don't like the team that drafted you. WTF?

I thought he didn't come because his Buyout with his club was too high and the NBA only allowed 500,000?

His injured foot was the reason he wasn't starting.

why was he only making like 30% of his shots? You can't really blame that on the foot.

He was like 11 years old. lol. And his main skill is passing. He would be a top 5 passer in the NBA as soon as he got in. He would obviously need to work on his shot.
