EDGE Analysis

The Stifle Tower recently proclaimed that his shooting would be vastly improved this season and continues to lend credence to that statement with his exhibition performances. Following Wednesday's effort, Gobert is now shooting 76 percent (29-for-38) from the charity stripe over four preseason contests, a considerable improvement over his 57 percent tally in that category last season. While the caveat about limited sample size applies, the 24-year-old does have double-digit scoring efforts in three of the first four exhibition contests, with double-doubles in two of those outings.
