Timberwolves trading Ricky Rubio to Cleveland

Ricky Rubio's second stint with the Timberwolves has apparently come to an end.

The Wolves are trading Rubio to Cleveland in exchange for forward Taurean Prince, a 2022 second-round pick and cash, a source confirmed.

Rubio got off to a slow start last season and said it was difficult to get up to speed early in the season before playing better in the second half. He averaged 8.6 points, a career low, and 6.4 assists. He's currently playing for Spain in the Olympics.

Prince is a forward who has played five seasons between Atlanta, Brooklyn and Cleveland.
