Today begins the coverage for the NBA draft, the future superstars of basketball. Last year was a great season for college basketball with big teams and plenty of big names. We all know of players such as Blake Griffin and Hasheem Thabeet, who seem to be the favorites in the 2009 NBA draft, but we never got to see much of this years third favorite Ricky Rubio. The 18 year old Spanish point guard is expected to go third in this years draft due to his amazing ball handling the likes of which you've probably never seen. In highlights of his play you will see nothing short of magic with the ball including behind the back passes and moves that would confuse even the best of players. He would be the perfect player but his shooting is less than perfect and overall his athleticism hasn't impressed. These however are aspects that can be "polished" with NBA training and a good coaching staff. It looks like Ricky Rubio will be making his American debut very shortly, in Kansas City.
