6 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists in 23 minutes. And he also had this:

Keep in mind that Rubio has only been practicing with Derrick Williams and his other teammates for only a week.

You get the feeling he's a bit hesitant when he's got an opportunity to score, almost as if he's intimidated. I'm most impressed with the patience he has, though...he knows how long to hold the ball, and when to hit his teammates. With all of these PG's the Wolves have tried to cycle through, in trades, signings or drafts, this is going to be THE one...finally.

Love the Rajon Rondo comparisons.

 

If we are talking strictly offense I like it.

 

I don't see Rubio coming anywhere close to the defender that Rondo is, though. He may be able to play the passing lanes as well as Rajon does, but I highly doubt he is able to play the lockdown man-to-man defense that Rondo can play when he sets his mind to it.
