Ricky Rubio may not be on the court tonight when the Wolves play the Lakers in Los Angeles.
According to the Star Tribune, Rubio did not participate in this morning’s shootaround because he was feeling ill.
Wolves President of Basketball Operations Flip Saunders told KFAN’s Dan Barreiro that Rubio might have food poisoning.
Flip told us on the Funkadelic that Rubio is iffy for tonight. Possible food poisoning.
