Phil Jackson is a fan of Minnesota's Ricky Rubio
New York Knicks president of basketball operations Phil Jackson is reportedly a fan of Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio.
What It Means:
The Wolves and head coach Tom Thibodeau are reportedly interested in Knicks' point guard Derrick Rose as well, so it would come as little surprise if the two sides got a deal done before Thursday's deadline.
Rubio is averaging 8.3 points, 8.4 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 32.1 minutes per game this season. His -0.2 nERD ranks 206th among the league's 463 players this season and is tied for eighth among Wolves players.
