One of Spain's basketball player was the young Ricky Rubio. He got my attention while watching the gold medal game against USA's dream team. Aside from his looks, certain facts about his basketball career got me interested. He is said to be the youngest basketball player to have ever played in the Olympics, he is only 17 years old. He was also the youngest player to have ever played in the Spanish ACB league at the age of 14. Born October 21, 1995, Rubio made his Spanish ACB League debut on October 15, 2005. He holds the point guard position for the Joventut Badalona both fot the ACB league and the Euroleague.
Although Rubio has been in the NBA radar since he started playing it is only now that they've given him serious thoughts. Over the years of observing his game they've noticed certain traits in him that makes him a magnificent baller. Despite his young age he has terrific basketball IQ. He is a born leader given his youth and shows a lot of poise.
Hope to see him in the NBA one day..
