Eager to take care of your mental health, Ricky Rubio announced in a press release published at the beginning of August that he was putting his career on hold.

Replacing Darius Garland at the lead, Ricky Rubio is coming off the worst season of his career in statistical terms: 5.2 points, 3.5 assists and 2.1 rebounds, at 34% on the shoot (including 26% on 3-points) and 80% on the throws. He will earn $6.1 million in 2023/24 and is tied to the Ohio franchise until the summer of 2025.
