Rudy Gobert Out For Game 2
7 months agoMinnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (personal) won't play on Monday against the Nuggets. The multi-time Defensive Player of the Year became a father, so he'll take the night off. He finished Game 1 on Saturday night with 13 boards and three blocks while limiting Nikola Jokic to an 11-for-25 shooting performance. But now that Gobert won't be out there, Jokic's DFS stock just increased significantly. His absence also should mean more work and offensive opportunities for guys like Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker behind Jaden McDaniels, Mike Conley, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Anthony Edwards.
