Timberwolves' Rubio will not play vs. Pacers

Chris Humphreys-USA TODAY Sports

The Minnesota Timberwolves will be without point guard Ricky Rubio for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers.

The 25-year-old will sit out his third straight game as he deals with a left hamstring strain.

"La Pistola" is averaging a near double-double of 13 points and nine assists (second in NBA) through six games for the 4-4 Timberwolves.

Zach LaVine will, in all likelihood, continue to run the point for Minnesota in Rubio's absence.
