    from stories i've read in the minneapolis papers, the t'wolves hold rubio's rights as long as he is playing professionally outside of the nba.

    also, after the 2010-11 season, the t'wolves are the only NBA team which can buy out his contract. but other international teams can buy out the contract for $1.4 million, too.

    If Rubio plays out this contract and signs another one in Europe, I think Minnesota still keeps his rights.

    Reading the CBA, they would have one year to sign him from when he is free to join them. Provided they make a tender offer, he doesn't sign with the T-Wolves and he doesn't sign a contract with any other foreign team, he re-eneters the draft after a year. If he sits out another year, he is a free agent. Of course that would mean that he sits out for 2 years
