Ricky Rubio

 Success (4/4) - 71 days

Ricky Rubio - NBA 2009 1st Round, 5th Pick. Minnesota Timberwolves rookie sensation! Had a great rookie year until he was injured and had to sit out for the rest of the season. I hope for his full recovery and see him play again next season.

Awesome success. He still a very gracious signer but his autograph quality degraded a bit. I guess it's due to the numerous autograph requests he is getting. 2 of 4 autographs were slightly smudge. I guess it pays to send several items.

Thank you very much Ricky for your kindness and generosity. I hope you recovery
completely from your injury so you can excite the fans when you grace the hardwood next season.

Signed only one 4R photo but unfortunately it has a postal rubber stamped on the lower right bottom portion of the photo because the enveloped was torn. I received my mail in a sealed plastic. Nate used to sign multiples. I'll need to try him again.
