Ricky Rubio already knows what his future will be in the NBA, one that had been expected in a certain way: the Spanish point guard agreed to a new contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to what was reported this Friday by Adrian Wojnarowski (ESPN) and Chris Haynes (Yahoo Sports). Yes, an old acquaintance…
Ricky had gotten off to a terrific start to 2021-2022 with the Cavaliers, averaging 13.1 points, 6.6 assists and 4.1 rebounds from the second unit, being key to one of the great revelations of the tournament. However, one fatal ligament rupture in his left knee he ended his campaign hastily, during the month of December. Without playing, the Cavs transferred his expiring contract to the Indiana Pacers, but the option of returning to Ohio was always latent.
How is the new contract of Ricky Rubio in Cleveland Cavaliers?
Haynes was the one who advanced the figures of the link: Ricky’s contract with the Cavs will be for 3 years and in exchange for 18.4 million dollars. A more than interesting link for the Spaniard, who will turn 32 in October, and also for the franchise, which ensures a veteran who was key to the good start of last season.
