After missing 43 games, Minnesota’s flashy point guard Ricky Rubio is set to return tomorrow against the Dallas Mavericks.
Rubio injured his ankle against the Orlando Magic on November 7th. The team has recently got Nikola Pekovic and Kevin Martin back from injury.
Head coach Flip Saunders is anticipating Rubio’s return.
“He’s seen three specialists and all of them have cleared him if things are OK come Monday,” Saunders said. “They have OK’d him to be able to play on a limited time basis. We will have to wait until Monday pretty much comes.”
Minnesota fell to 8-39 after losing to Cleveland last night.
