Ricky Rubio is expected to live with his parents this season as he begins playing for Regal Barcelona.

Rubio will earn $1.45 million with Regal, who paid DKV Joventut more than $5.7 million to buy out the guard's previous contract.

The Spaniard, who was drafted by the Timberwolves in June's NBA Draft, said earlier this week that coming over to play in the United States this season would have been "too risky."
