OT: Rubio confusion

[Newskoolbulls]

I just read this kid might not even come over. He has a 6 million dollar buyout and any team that drafts him can only fork over 500,000. Spain will make it tuff to make him come over.

I'm sure he knows the situation if he decides to come to the NBA.

Short term it's not good, but long term if he's good... each year he waits is another year of big NBA money he's missing out after his rookie contract. The younger he is when he signs that 1st contract after his rookie contract, the better.

Reportedly, he has a deal with a show company (I think it was adidas) that he would use to pay his buyout.

I was sure he had his bases covered if he was considering coming to the NBA... or his agent was going to cover them for him.

(and that was shoe company not show company, though maybe he can do showtunes too)
