Rudy Gobert Records Double-Double With Seven Blocks
4 years agoUtah Jazz center Rudy Gobert showed why he's in the Defensive Player of the Year conversation once again in Tuesday's 106-96 win over the Thunder. Gobert notched his second consecutive double-double, but it was on the defensive end where he had his biggest impact, as he swatted seven shots and recorded one steal. The French big man now has seven games with five or more blocks- and is averaging 2.8 per contest for the season, second only to Myles Turner. Gobert will go head-to-head with Turner and the Pacers on Friday night in a battle of defensive-minded bigs. The former had a 16-16 line with three blocks in their first meeting.
