Rubio signs with Regal Barcelona with an affordable buyout in 2011"

(via Marca.com) "Ricky Rubio, the 5th pick of the Minnesota Timberwolves in this year's draft, has agreed to terms on a contract with Regal Barcelona. The Spanish team will pay a buyout of 3.7 million Euros, approximately $5.3 million, to Rubio's previous team, Joventut. Rubio will sign a six-year agreement that contains an affordable buyout in 2011."

On the bright side for the Timberwolves, this gives Johnny Flynn a couple seasons to work on his game without worrying if he can play with Ricky. And hopefully Rubio will put on a few pounds over the next two years and have a more "NBA ready" body.
