One of the crucial aspects of the pork in a Cuban (which is the most dominant flavor) is the Mojo marinade. A rub won't do it alone, I don't redckon.

If he's going to smoke it, do a rub with lots of garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and, if you have it, Mojo rub. Then I'd spray orange juice during the smoke and wrap it with orange juice after the bark is formed (and the meat isn't likely to absorb more smoke). That's going to get you you the best combo of smoke and the Cuban flavors.
