Ricky Rubio 6'5 185lbs 19 G Team: DKV Joventut(Spain) Strengths: A point guard with good size for his position, a terrific wingspan, excellent court vision and decision making, great defensive potential, an incredible ball thief, an almost unstoppable slasher. Weaknesses: Isn't as good with his left hand as he is with his right. Outside shot has shown a lot of improvement but still not deadly. Notes: The #1 pick no matter what draft he declares for... some say the second coming of Pete Maravich, but better, and that's scary. Potential Rookie ratings: B- C+ B C+ C A In August of 2006 Rubio led the Spanish national team to the FIBA Europe U16 Championship. During the tournament (excluding the final game), Rubio achieved two triple-doubles and one quadruple-double. In the 110-106 double overtime finale victory over Russia, Rubio scored 51 points (including a three-point buzzer-beater shot from mid court to force the first overtime), grabbed 24 rebounds, made 12 assists, and stole the ball seven times — a performance unprecedented in tournament history. Rubio also was named Most Valuable Player of the tournament after leading it in points, rebounds, assists and steals. I saw that game... he was amazing.

it's all a guessing game, especially two years from now. but playing in euroleague as a pup is more than any other guy entering that draft can say. and playing well.

He played recently in the U-18, didn't have as dominant a performance but was still the best player on a stacked Spain team.
