Sergio Scariolo revealed to “Mundo Deportivo” how Ricky Rubio returned to the Spain team after a mental health break.
These days, the Spaniard is at the epicenter of the basketball world. It was reported that he returned to Barcelona like a bombshell, and then it was announced today that he will be on the list for the start of the EuroBasket 2025 qualifiers. The Italian expert explained how Rubio came to return to “La Familia”.
“I didn’t hold the phone in my hand every day, but I was waiting to receive that call. We were in constant contact from last summer until three days ago. He told me that he would like his first official match to be with the national team, because he feels a special connection with me, with the national team and with his teammates,” began Sergio Scariolo.
