Report: Ricky Rubio says Jazz have told him he’s ‘not priority number one’ for them

In the Jazz’s season wrap-up with the media on the morning after they were eliminated from the playoffs by the Rockets, then-general manager Dennis Lindsey said there were a lot of scenarios in which he could see free agent point guard Ricky Rubio return to the team.

In a recent interview with Catalunya Radio, Rubio was quoted as saying [in Catalan], “[Utah has] let me know that I am not priority number one. Then, we have to look for other options.”

Ricky Rubio says the Utah Jazz let him know that he is no longer a priority for them, per @ernestmacia.
