Rudy Gobert's slow start has been a notable story for the Minnesota Timberwolves amid a 2-3 start. Gobert is averaging just 8.6 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks. His points and rebounds are the lowest since his second year. Plus, his 5.0 field goal attempts are the lowest since his rookie year, when he averaged under 10 minutes per game. Gobert's lack of offensive impact has been amplified with Anthony Edwards being sidelined with a hamstring injury.
Considering Gobert's age (33) and similarly lackluster impact in the playoffs, it's fair to believe this decline, especially on offense, is real.
