In just about every way. Everything in this solar system is believed to have been at least at one time a piece of rubble like the asteroids. In the case of our own moon, a body about the size of Mars may have impacted the Earth; then the leftover rubble from this off-center hit formed the Moon. If that theory is correct even our own Moon was a piece of rubble.
