Ricky Rubio, the seasoned point guard of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Spain national team, revealed on Saturday that he will be stepping away from basketball temporarily to prioritize his mental well-being.
"I have decided to stop my professional activity to take care of my mental health. I want to thank all the support I have received from the [Spanish national] team to understand my decision," Rubio said in a statement issued by the Spanish Basketball Federation.
