The Phoenix Suns’ training camp tipped-off in Flagstaff on Tuesday morning and Ricky Rubio is already stepping up and embracing his role as a leader on his new team.
“Felt good to be back out there on the court,” Rubio said. “We have a lot of talent. Now, we have to put it all together. It takes time. There’s a lot of new guys, new coaching staff too. So, a lot of people have got to adapt to each other and we’ve just got to bring our best to achieve what we want to achieve.”
Head Coach Monty Williams was quick to praise the team’s point guard and the leadership and guidance he provided in just the first day of camp.
