Knicks to Inquire About Rubio

by Brett PollakoffFiled under: Knicks, Timberwolves, NBA Draft, NBA RumorsThe Minnesota Timberwolves used the fourth pick in the NBA Draft to take Ricky Rubio, but now there are serious doubts about whether the Spanish sensation wants to play there. Rubio was non-committal immediately after being selected, saying he was excited to come to the NBA, when answering a question that asked if he was excited to go to Minnesota.A little later on draft night, Rubio's father was quoted by a Spanish news site as saying that he would probably "remain one or two years in Europe." With it becoming increasingly clear that Rubio has no interest in playing in Minnesota, the Knicks said that they would make the call to the Timberwolves to see about bringing him to New York.Knicks to Inquire About Rubio originally appeared on Fanhouse NBA Blog on Fri, 26 Jun 2009 15:46:00 EDT .
