Gobert (calf) is out Friday against the Magic, Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Although Gobert will be forced to miss a ninth straight game due to a strained left calf, he appears to be getting closer to a return since he was labeled as a game-time call ahead of Friday's matchup. Udoka Azubuike will likely start once again, while Gobert's next chance to return will be Monday against the Rockets.
