Ricky Rubio never played college basketball.
But apparently the Timberwolves point guard knows something about it.

Timberwolves PR:
Rubio on his perfect bracket (16/16): "Luck." Said he knows a lot of 12 seeds beat 5 seeds & he likes Arkansas Little Rock for some reason.

Syracuse’s and Villanova’s wins today brings Rubio to 17-for-18
The big questions:
When did Rubio fill out the bracket? He didn’t post it until after locking up a perfect first day.
How many brackets did Rubio fill out? Going 1-for-1 is far more impressive than 1-for-20.
I’m willing to trust Rubio on the first question, and considering it’s hand-written, I doubt he filled out several brackets.
Great job, Ricky.
