Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert had another standout game on the boards and on defense against the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday. He came down with a game-high 20 rebounds while compiling four blocks and one steal. It was the third time this year he'd reached 20 boards in a game and he's now compiled 11 blocks over his last three outings. Gobert wasn't very aggressive offensively on Tuesday. He shot just 3-for-4 from the field and 6-for-9 from the free throw strike as he scored 12 points. Through ...

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert had a quiet game on offense but affected the game in other ways in a victory over the Bucks. Gobert took just three shots, scoring a season-low nine points, but it was his contributions on the glass, 13 rebounds, and on the defensive end, a season-high four blocks with one steal, that helped power the Jazz to a win Sunday. The French big man was on-pace for a career-low in swats, so it was nice to see the blocks come in bunches against Milwaukee. Gobert ranks fourth...

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (knee) suffered an injury in Tuesday's loss to the Jazz. Jokic exited the game after banging knees with Rudy Gobert, but an MRI confirmed no structural damage to the knee, though the star center is sore. Jokic, who scored 24 points with six rebounds and six assists in just 15 minutes, seems to be trending towards a questionable tag for Thursday's game against the Rockets. Mike Singer of the Denver Post notes the team's generally-conservative approach with ...

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert tallied 16 points with 21 rebounds and a blocked shot in Wednesday's season-opening win over the Thunder. Gobert tied for third in the NBA in double-doubles last year and wasted no time in picking up his first of the 2021 campaign, as he notched one in just 12 minutes. The star center shot an efficient 6 of 9 from the field. Gobert seems poised to author a strong campaign on the back of his usual excellent rebounding and shot-blocking, with some efficient shooting ...

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert has established himself as one of the preeminent double-double weapons in the league over the past handful of years, and Wednesday was no different. Despite logging just 29 minutes due to the hefty margin of victory vs. the Thunder, Gobert managed to compile 21 rebounds to go along with 16 points. The 21 boards mark his opening night of the season career best, as he reached the 20-rebound plateau just six times total last year. As consistent as they come in ...

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert secured a 13-point, 16-rebound double-double in Sunday's blowout win over Sacramento, shooting 6-for-8 from the field and adding two blocks and one assist to his line. The Jazz will now wait for their playoff opponent from the play-in tournament as the top seed in the West. Gorbet's previous postseason campaigns haven't gone too well, but playing on a dominant team will definitely help him to keep up his regular-season numbers. He averaged 14.3 points per game for ...

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert owned the glass in Wednesday's loss to Portland, recording 20 rebounds. He added 15 points on 6-for-8 shooting for his 46th double-double of the season. Gobert, who went 3-for-4 at the charity stripe, completed his line with two assists, one steal, one block and two turnovers. The French giant has now posted six games with 20-plus rebounds in 2020-21. The Jazz have taken two consecutive losses, but they close out the regular season against weak OKC and Sacramento ...

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert recorded his fourth straight double-double in Monday's win over the Spurs. Gobert scored 24 points with 15 rebounds, three blocks, a pair of steals, and an assist in 30 minutes. The two-time Defensive Player of the Year has blocked at least three shots with at least one steal in four of his last five games- and he'll get to match up against the Spurs once again on Wednesday. Gobert has pulled down 21 boards and blocked nine shots in two games against San Antonio ...

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert recorded a 19-point, 18-rebound double-double in just 26 minutes of action in Wednesday's blowout win over the Rockets. He shot 9-for-12 from the field and had two blocks while posting a very impressive plus-44 rating. Houston has been kind to opposing centers all season, and the same applies to Minnesota, whom Utah takes on next in a two-game set. Gobert had an easy night against the T-Wolves in this season's first meeting, notching 18 points and 16 rebounds in 29 ...

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (rest) and center Rudy Gobert (rest) have been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it's not shocking that the Jazz are playing it safe here. The Jazz will also be without Donovan Mitchell (ankle) and Derrick Favors (knee) for this game. Georges Niang, Ersan Ilyasova and Juwan Morgan should see extended playing time. However, Niang might be the only decent streaming option from those three ...
