The much-talked-about decline of Rudy Gobert to begin the season was premature. The 33-year-old is still making a huge impact at both ends of the court for the Minnesota Timberwolves in what is his 13th season in the NBA.
Despite Minnesota taking the loss on Wednesday, Gobert’s fine play continued.
Gobert's scoring has increased of late
A father of a newborn baby girl, Gobert’s first game after becoming a two-time dad took place on Wednesday against the Grizzlies. Without Anthony Edwards and Mike Conley for the third straight outing, the Timberwolves fell at home by the score of 116-110.
