Ricky Rubio - G - Minnesota Timberwolves
March 22, 2013 - 9:10 AM ET
Ricky Rubio was unfazed by a groin injury and played 32 minutes in Thursday's loss, scoring 12 points to go along with seven rebounds, nine assists and three steals.
He shot just 4-of-13 from the floor and didn't make a three, but he had just one turnover and flirted with a triple-double so his owners have to be happy. Rubio should continue to be an asset the rest of the season and is averaging 12.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 8.4 assists and 2.9 steals since the All-Star break. To put that into context, he was averaging 7.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 1.8 steals prior to the break.
