VIDEO: Oh yeah, Ricky Rubio's back

Brace Hemmelgarn-USA TODAY Sports

In case anyone missed or forgot the news that Ricky Rubio was back for the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday, he made sure to remind them quickly.

After three months off due to a bad ankle sprain, Rubio didn't even need a full half of action against the Dallas Mavericks to get on the highlight reel. Midway through the second quarter, Rubio got out in transition with his youthful running mates, hitting Andrew Wiggins with a ridiculous bounce pass after the most beautiful head-fake.

Missed u, Ricky

Poor Chandler Parsons isn't used to getting lost in a player's eyes - it's usually the other way around for him.

Rubio played 11 first-half minutes and is expected to be capped at around 20 for the night. So, maybe only two or three more ridiculous passes are coming.
