Ricky Rubio’s mother, Tona Vives, has died after a long battle with lung cancer and today the Spanish star of the Timberwolves felt the need to thank everyone for their support to his mourn.
As he wrote on instagram: “The last few days have been very hard and heartbreaking for me and my whole family, I’d like to thank you all for your support, love and thoughts.
I’d like to be there to thank you all in person but it won’t be possible. My mother was a genuine and one of a kind woman who, I’m sure, is going to take care of us as a star from now on. Thank you my friends for everything, a huge hug”.
