Timberwolves hopeful Rubio comes to states

The Minnesota Timberwolves remain hopeful that Spain guard Ricky Rubio will honor his NBA contract.

Rubio opted to stay over in Europe and play professional basketball last year instead of joining the Timberwolves. Minnesota drafted him with one of their two selections very early in the first round of the NBA Draft.

It is rumored that Rubio is not fond of Minnesota or their franchise and wants to be traded if he plays in the NBA.

The Timberwolves have rejected such notions so far, but are going to have to get something in return for Rubio if he continues to play over in Europe.
