From a tailored red suit during the Utah Jazz’s trip to New York to a leopard-print shirt that caught Twitter’s attention Tuesday night, Ingles has not been a fan of Gobert’s wardrobe choices.
“It’s not my style,” he said. “We gave it to him a little in the locker room. I honestly thought he was joking. I didn’t think he was going to wear it out there.”
But Gobert’s flamboyant style on the bench underscores an issue that’s actually important to the Jazz. The 7-foot-1 center and several other Jazzmen haven’t been able to suit up in uniform.
