Flip Saunders concerned by Ricky Rubio injury

Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Flip Saunders reveals that he is worried about Ricky Rubio after he sustained an ankle injury in his side's loss to the Orlando Magic.

Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Flip Saunders has admitted that his side are concerned about an ankle injury sustained by point guard Ricky Rubio.

The 24-year-old fell awkwardly after attempting a surge for the basket in the second quarter of his side's defeat to the Orlando Magic, and will be re-evaluated ahead of his side's matchup against the Miami Heat.

Saunders told reporters: "He popped it pretty good. So we'll have to wait to see where it's at tomorrow. It swelled up high. You're always concerned about the possibility with high ankle-type sprain.

"We'll know more tomorrow. I know that Ricky, he'll do whatever he has to do to try to get back. He has an unbelievable work ethic."

The Timberwolves are 2-3 in their campaign going into their clash with the Heat.
