Ricky Rubio agreed to 4-years $55 million to extend with Timberwolves

Ricky Rubio has reached an agreement on a four-year, $55 million contract extension with the Minnesota Timberwolves,according to Yahoo Sports.

Rubio, 24, will make nearly $14 million a season for the Wolves, a package comparable to Eric Bledsoe’s five-year, $70 million extension with the Phoenix Suns.

The T'wolves are counting upon Rubio to be the cornerstone of their franchise as they transition from the post-Kevin Love era to a young core centered on rookie Andrew Wiggins.
