Ricky Rubio (hamstring) questionable for Timberwolves

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio (hamstring) is questionable to play against the Miami Heat on Tuesday.

What It Means:

He has missed the past four games with the injury, but was able to participate in practice on Monday. The questionable designation isn't promising, as Rubio has missed the last two games after being listed as probable in both. Zach LaVine is usually a must-start when Rubio sits, but Andre Miller's usage on Sunday creates slight reason for caution.

Professor Andre Miller played 34 minutes on Sunday, limiting LaVine to 17 minutes. Despite the reduced minutes, LaVine still finished with 25 points, three boards, three dimes and four made 3-pointers. His nERD currently ranks him 93rd.
