4. Ricky Rubio

Position: Point Guard
Age: 26
Experience:  6th Season
2016-17 Season Averages: 32.9 MPG, 11.1 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 9.1 APG, 1.7 SPG, 0.8 3PM

This was the best season Ricky Rubio has played in a Timberwolves uniform, averaging the most points and assists per game in his career.

His shooting improved as well. In fact, he shot a career high field goal and free throw percentage. That was one of his biggest knocks so it is good to see him heading in the right direction.

Rubio finished fourth in the NBA in assists per turnovers, posting 3.5 assists for every turnover he committed. That made him a great fit with the next three young stars on the list.
