The player he draws a lot of comparisons to is Pete "the pistol" Maravich. He even looks like him a little in this picture:

The Euroleague is a league played parallel to the domestic leagues and contains the best teams of each country.
Rubio isn't playing in the Euroleague this year, and the 51 pts game was in an under-16 tournament (while he was 15).

I live in the UK and have been following european based basketball for quite some time.

I wrote that comment having spent all day in the pub drowning the fact I just saw all 3 of my teams lose this weekend. Sorry if my facts arent acruate. My point was that he was going to get discredited because he played in europe and the 3 minute highlight clip wasnt the best.

I agree. But of course people compared Williams to Maravich as well.

What is clear is that style of this kid's game will sell tickets.
