Ricky Rubio

Ricky Rubio is an NBA player for the Minnesota Timberwolves. You might know him from such films as "gets drafted by Minnesota but refuses to play there for two years, instead choosing to stay in Spain."  It was a good flick; ask any Timberwolves fan.

Ricky started playing in the Euroleague at age 16 and put up some pretty good numbers in his European games.  He also played for the U-16 Spanish national team in '06 and the senior team in the '08 Olympics.  His achievement list has a lot on it for someone who is only 21.  His first NBA season was successful, and I think he lived up the hype surrounding him.  Unfortunately, he also tore his ACL and didn't finish the season.  Let's hope, for the sake of the ricking world that his recovery is speedy and he is better than ever in the upcoming season.

Here's a highlight video from his first NBA season.  Nifty passer, this Ricky.
