Rudy Gobert's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The big man will sit this game out after being listed as questionable coming into the contest. Naz Reid will be asked to pick up the slack with Karl Anthony-Towns (knee) sidelined as well. Reid is going to be forced to play big minutes, which makes him an appealing streaming option for Sunday's slate.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (hamstring) is uncertain to play in Sunday's matchup with the Lakers. The multi-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year popped up on the injury report late on Sunday, and with Minnesota currently in the middle of a six-game road trip, head coach Chris Finch may play it safe by holding him out. With Kyle Anderson (shoulder) also carrying a questionable tag heading into the meeting with Los Angeles, Naz Reid and Luka Garza could see more work. However, the former's fantasy upside is much higher. At the same time, T.J. Warren, coming off a six-point, four-rebound performance on Friday against Cleveland, could surprise people if Gobert and Anderson don't suit up.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) is available for Wednesday's matchup against Memphis. Gobert played with a sprained left ankle in Tuesday's win over the Spurs. He was on the court for 39 minutes against San Antonio. Should the center minutes be limited, Naz Reid, as a power forward in the front court alongside the returning Karl-Anthony Towns, will fill the void against a weak and depleted Memphis lineup.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have listed center Rudy Gobert (ankle) as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies. Gobert fought through a sprained left ankle in Tuesday's victory over the San Antonio Spurs, but his status is uncertain for the second half of Minnesota's back-to-back. It's worth noting the 31-year-old interior presence logged 39 minutes Tuesday, so if the T-Wolves elect to give Gobert the night off, expect Naz Reid to start at power forward in the frontcourt alongside the returning Karl-Anthony Towns against a depleted Memphis squad that ranks 24th in fantasy points allowed to the position, per DraftKings scoring.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) has officially been listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Spurs. After missing Saturday's clash with the Nets due to an ankle sprain, Gobert practiced on Monday and "looked good," according to Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch. However, the team has refrained from declaring him available for Tuesday's game. Naz Reid had 27 minutes off the bench without Gobert on Saturday and would benefit from his absence again. It's a matchup against Victor Wembanyama, who has been terrific defensively during his rookie campaign, but all of the Timberwolves bigs have posted solid numbers in the previous head-to-head meetings this season.
