Sunday’s game at Memphis could include Ricky Rubio for the first time this preseason as he continues to recover from off-season ankle surgery and a mild strained quadriceps from last week’s training camp.

Sam said after practice today in Ottawa they're still aiming for Ricky to practice fully Fri-Sat, intending he'll get cleared to play Sunday

It’ll be good to see Rubio on the court along with Karl-Anthony Towns for the first time ever, as well as the Rubio-Zach LaVine back court that we didn’t get the chance to see much of in 2014-15.
