Gobert came off the bench to put up seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, and three blocks during 13 minutes against Cleveland on Wednesday.
Gobert only averaged 9.6 minutes during 45 games last season but it's clear that his role is much larger this year as he's played an average of 15.8 minutes in all five of Utah's games. If given the minutes, the seven footer is able to up impressive rebound and block totals. However, he's currently coming off the bench behind Derrick Favors and Enes Kanter and is limited in terms of time on the court. Further complicating Gobert's playing time is the hot start that fellow frontcourt player Trevor Booker has had. Unless things drastically change, Gobert will be limited by the depth of players in Utah's frontcourt.
