MINNEAPOLIS -- 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.

we all know Minnesota doesn't count

Kevin Love is a unique player that can give you a double double nightly. Michael Beasley will be entering his 4th year next season and this far his stats have went from 14ppg to 20 ppg, he could be ready for a breakout seasons.

Add Rubio and they might surprise people, especially if Wayne Ellington and Johnny Flynn step up. The team has a lot of young guys who may or may not have talent. Hard to tell.

Rubio's stats have really suffered this year though..which makes me wonder is he is really as good as advertised...

[tarheelblue89]

Meh, the guy has been playing at the pro level for 6 years now and he's only 20.

After the '08 Olympics I was sold on him.

To me, Rubio is Nash without a shot.

Why does the little **** get so much attention? I hope the fool instantly crash, and burn when he gets here.

[Panthers128]

Would you really call someone from Spain a ****? Isn't that more for people with the native American heritage, more native people of the south and central Americas and/or mixed?

Spain is in Western Europe and they have the same history other white people do with monarchies and great artists (leonardo da vinci). They're not running across borders or known for cheap labor.

Spain even has neo-nazis.
