Chris Finch

told Efe that Rubio there is little more the team can ask of the Spanish player who is playing at his best.

"Ricky is playing at a very high level for us, I think he is playing his best basketball of the season. I'm not sure we have to ask him for anything more. I think he has to hold where he is right now. He has done a good job choosing. the moments when he has to be aggressive to score. Of course, he's an incredible playmaker, "Finch said.

For his part, in statements to Efe, Rubio agreed with Finch that at the moment he is playing his best basketball although he also said that he can improve.

"I know who I am and how I am and I still have more basketball. Last year I had my best season. And this one I was having my worst season but I think things have changed a lot. I am more comfortable with my game, I am happy, I am with good form and I have adapted a bit to the strange situation we are living in. And that also helps to feel comfortable, "he explained.

"The last two or three weeks I think I am playing my best basketball again and I want more. I was playing the best season last year and I hope and I think it will not be my best season but I will have better," he added.

Rubio also told Efe that it is already common for his name to appear at this time in the lists of possible transfers but that it is something he cannot think about.

"I know that every February or March my name is in the rumors. I was here in Minnesota and they almost transferred me to New York. I was in Utah and they almost transferred me to Memphis. In the end until it happens we can't think about it. If it happens. comes and if not, here, to end the season, "he concluded
