Sad news..
Timberwolves' Rubio out for season with torn ACL
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Ricky Rubio will miss the rest of the season after an MRI revealed a torn ACL in his left knee, a league source told SI.com on Saturday.
Rubio was injured in the closing seconds of Minnesota's 105-102 loss to the Lakers on Friday night.
The expected six-to-nine month recovery time means Rubio will not only miss the rest of the season but will most likely be unable to suit up for Spain in the Olympics this summer.
Rubio, 21, the fifth pick in the 2009 draft, was enjoying a stellar rookie season with Minnesota, averaging 10.6 points and 8.2 assists.
Led by Rubio and All-Star forward Kevin Love, the Timberwolves (21-20) were just a half game out of the final playoff spot in the Western Conference and on pace for the franchise's first winning season since 2004-2005.

Black Mamba strikes! I remember Rubio telling Kobe that he and Team USA will get silver medals in the London Olympics.
A shame really. I was eager to see Rubio playing for the national team against USA with his NBA experience in tow.Sacramento Kings
HERE WE STAY UNTIL THE COWBELLS COME HOME

Some are saying Kobe did this more or less on purpose. What do you think?

You could see it coming. Rubio's first triple-double: 21 points + 12 assists + 13 rebounds.
The Wolves beat the Spurs.

Does Rubio finally learned how to shoot? He's amazing at the moment. Hopefully he'll finally start playing up to his true potential. In my opinion he has been so much unlucky with his NBA career thus far...as a 16-18yo he looked like from other planet...
34 and 29 points games as of late...he's nailing his jumpers as well.LTU NT will snatch Eurobasket 2029 title with this roster:
