The Timberwolves introduced point guard Ricky Rubio at a press conference Tuesday morning.  The 20-year old Rubio is a 6'4 player who was taken with the 5th overall pick in the 2009 NBA draft by the Wolves.

He has been playing professionally in Europe for the past 6 years.  Rubio vows to help the team in whatever way he can and idolizes Steve Nash.  Rubio is considered a pass first point guard and President David Kahn says can transform the Timberwolves franchise.
