Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert is questionable for Monday's Game 2 due to personal reasons after becoming a father for the first time.

The baby boy was delivered Monday morning, sources told ESPN.

It is uncertain whether Gobert will be able to travel to Denver in time for the tip-off against the defending champion Denver Nuggets.

Gobert, a finalist to earn his record-tying fourth Defensive Player of the Year award, had 6 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks and a steal in the Timberwolves' Game 1 win in the Western Conference semifinals series.
