Ricky Rubio highlights from Euroleague semis [video]

Wondering how Ricky Rubio is doing over in Spain? Well, his team (Barcelona) won the Euroleague title. Here is a crude mash up of his highlights for the semifinal game, where had 10 points, eight assists, four rebounds and two steals. He had a hand in 41% of his team’s points.

He looks a little stronger — let’s not forget that he’s still only 19 years old — and has the same court vision and ball handling that had scouts drooling over his skill set last summer.

He reminds me of a young Jason Kidd — a floor leader with an improving jumper. Kidd is quite a bit stronger and is a better rebounder, but the similarities are there.

Rubio has stated that he’s going to play in Europe for another season and then come over to the NBA. Only time will tell if he ends up playing for the team (T-Wolves) that drafted him.
