Biggest Disappointment: Injury to Ricky Rubio
The Timberwolves were supposed to be one of the most interesting teams in all the NBA. Although, that took a turn for the worse when Ricky Rubio went down with a “severely” sprained left ankle. He’s expected to miss about two months.
With the loss, the Wolves now have to be more about Zach LaVine and Andrew Wiggins than they probably would’ve liked to this early in the two rookies’ progression.
In the end though, I guess it could still work out. Especially for a player like LaVine.
