BILBAO, Spain — NBA draft pick Ricky Rubio says he is talking with his Barcelona club about his future.

After Barcelona beat Bilbao for the Spanish basketball league title on Tuesday, Rubio said “we are taking with Barcelona and we will soon see.”

At 20, Rubio has filled his trophy case. Even so, he struggled to score this season and lost his spot in Barcelona’s starting lineup.

The Minnesota Timberwolves selected Rubio at No. 5 in the 2009 draft, but the Spanish point guard decided to stay home.

The Associated Press reported this month that the Timberwolves reached a deal with Rubio for him to join the NBA team next season.
