The Associated Press brings up an update on Ricky Rubio's return. As expected, the young point guard is taking the cautious approach to his return from season-ending ACL injury.

"I'm trying to do as much things as I can do. They have to stop me sometimes because I want to do more. Sometimes it's bad for my knee to do more. ... I don't want to say a time because I don't want to rush it. I just want to be ready when I'm ready," Rubio said.

According to the story, Rubio is on track to return to NBA action in December or January. Here's video of Rubio talking about his rehab with Timberwolves.com.
