I am with you. Do we know the on/off stats for other players? it would be nice to see the context of that. What is Young's is 35 or peks is 25. That would make the meaning of Rubio's 27.x more meaningful
Based on stats from basketball reference Wolves on/off stats are:
Turiaf: +29.6
Rubio: +26.1
Hummel: +15.7
Wiggins: +10.3
Martin: +4.5
Pekovic: +3.9
Budinger: +2.6
Young: +1.5
Muhammad: -2.3
Williams: -5.9
Dieng: -10.7
Bennett: -11.2
Lavine: -18.9
Brewer: -20.0
This includes already those two games that Wolves have played without Rubio. On/off stats are not too kind for Wolves young talent. Only Wiggins have positive number. Overall Ricky's numbers are really impressive since no other starter except Wiggins has had better than +10 and Wiggins numbers are skewed by his substitute Brewer being so horrible.
These numbers tell same story that many have been already telling that good things will happen when Hummel is on court.
Finally if only Turiaf could stay healthy. :P
Rubio's +/- is clearly being effected by the fact that I don't think you can play as bad as Rubio's backups have the past 2 years.
