Rubio to workout with the Kings? Plus Holiday, Evans, Flynn

One of the more interesting tidbits of information coming out of the pre-draft workouts the last two days in Oakland is word that the agent for Spanish point guard Ricky Rubio is suddenly amenable to participating in interviews and individuals workouts with a select number of teams - the Memphis Grizzlies, Oklahoma City Thunder and Kings. Sources told me that, at this point, Rubio's agent, Dan Fegan, is limiting the visits to the teams with draft picks 2-4. Given the fact that Jrue Holiday and Jonny Flynn are moving up on most mock draft boards, this makes sense. Plus, Rubio didn't play particularly well in his season finale. Holiday is expected to return to Sacramento for a second workout, Tyreke Evans is scheduled to work out here next week, and Flynn shortly thereafter. Since the Kings have been unusually accommodating to the media this year - in the past, the team refused to reveal which prospects were working out, and allowed no media access to the workouts - this should be a very interesting few weeks.

So supposedly, Rubio will workout with the Kings and as well as with the Thunder and Grizzlies too. Rubio's agent, Fegan, limits those three teams for Rubio to workout.

Plus, Holiday will get another workout with the Kings. (Hmm, the Kings appears to really like him Image)

Evans and Flynn will get workouts after these guys.

Yeah, you are right. Mitch was the one who mentioned this in the Rubio/#4 thread.

Mods can you merged this into that thread or delete it? Sorry for the inconvenience. :)

I'm really bad at merging things, so I'll just lock this and copy your information into the other thread.
