The Timberwolves will hold a 3 p.m. news conference today to introduce first-round draft choices Jonny Flynn of Syracuse and Wayne Ellington of North Carolina.

No. 1 pick Ricky Rubio won't be in attendance.

Wolves president of basketball of operations David Kahn, through a team spokesman, cautioned not to ready anything into that, but there are plenty of questions about whether Rubio will end up signing with and playing for Minnesota this season or return to his Spanish team.

Rubio's father suggested the latter after the Wolves made the flashy point guard the No. 5 overall selection in Thursday night's NBA draft.



What does it mean?

Not sure yet,  but given his reluctant reaction when he was drafted by the Wolves last night…

A Wolves spokesman said there’s “no conspiracy here” and said Rubio’s agent, Dan Fegan, decided not to have his client come to town because of the uncertainty over Rubio’s unresolved contract buyout with his Spanish team.

He said Rubio is not balking at playing for the Wolves.
