#Cavs Ricky Rubio already with 8 assists in 11 minutes in this spot start. Last year, when Darius Garland was out of the lineup, the Cavs were using Damyean Dotson, Yogi Ferrell and some other dudes I can’t remember at point guard. – 7:43 PM

Ricky Rubio has played 25 minutes next to just Darius Garland, 20 minutes next to Collin Sexton, five minutes with both, and 10 minutes with neither.
Per 36 preseason line of 19/4/8, and feels like he’s going to be close to 30 minutes. – 2:21 PM

More on this storyline
The Spanish point guard will become a free agent after the conclusion of the 2021-22 season. He is not yet thinking about the decisions to come, therefore not ruling out any possibility. “I am not thinking about that right now,” he pointed out replying to a question regarding a potential return to Europe, “At the end of the season, I will be a free agent and consider my options. The way I have played will determine my market value. Along with my family, we will assess the options and together take the next step.” -via EuroHoops.net / August 30, 2021
