Minnesota Timberwolves point guard SLAM Magazine featured him in way back in 2007, the Spaniard is only 23 years old, has ostensibly the best court vision in the game (sorry, Chris Paul), and is a threat to lead the league in both steals and assists for the next decade suggesting that Rubio was never the point guard of the future but rather the closest nod to basketball's past we may see for quite some time: a pure point guard.
