A representative for Ricky Rubio's agency in Spain told The Post yesterday the 18-year-old flamboyant point-guard phenom is receiving offers this weekend to play for a club in Turkey and Real Madrid, which would decrease the likelihood of him playing in the NBA next season. Also Knicks team president Donnie Walsh spoke to Timberwolves general manager David Kahn yesterday. According to a source, Kahn's being patient and is not interested in talking trade yet and is "trying to keep him." If the Timberwolves traded Rubio to the Knicks, it could sway Rubio into playing in the NBA next season. The Knicks are the preference of Rubio's parents. But I highly doubts Kahn will trade Rubio despite Walsh's offers. His parents loved New York and thought it would be the best place because they have a European style coach in Mike D'Antoni.
