Gobert is questionable for Friday's game versus Denver with a left rib sprain.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert has been able to play through his rib sprain in three straight games, playing at least 34 minutes in all three. He's still considered day-to-day, however, so fantasy managers will want to monitor this situation closely.

Gobert totaled 11 points (5-5 FG, 1-1 FT), 14 rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 106-91 victory over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert hasn't been the double-double machine he was during his Utah days since joining the Timberwolves, but there's no question he's taken a leap forward this season compared to the numbers he posted in 2022-23. Gobert ranks fifth in The Association in double-doubles this season with 46 out of 66 appearances.

Gobert is questionable for Wednesday's game against Detroit due to a sprained rib on his left side.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert has compiled 74 minutes of action across his last two appearances, but he was sidelined for the three contests prior due to rib pain. During those absences, Gobert expressed the importance of being 100 percent healthy to take the court, so his status will need to be monitored in advance of Wednesday's contest. Anthony Edwards (finger) is also considered questionable.

Gobert racked up 17 points (7-10 FG, 3-3 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one block across 37 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 win over the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
It's the veteran center's 45th double-double of the season. Gobert has missed four of the last seven games with a rib injury, but he's still pulled down double-digit rebounds in all eight March contests he's been able to suit up for. He's averaged 14.0 points, 14.5 boards, 2.4 blocks, 1.4 assists and 0.8 steals on the month while shooting 66.2 percent from the floor.

Gobert is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Warriors due to a left rib sprain.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert returned from a three-game absence Friday but continues to deal with a sprained rib. His status Sunday will presumably depend on how the injury is feeling closer to tipoff. Should he ultimately be unable to go, Naz Reid would be the prime beneficiary, while Luka Garza could also see some extra minutes.

Gobert (rib) tallied nine points (4-7 FG, 1-4 FT), 14 rebounds, two blocks and one assist across 37 minutes Friday in the Timberwolves' 104-91 win over the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert provided his usual contributions in the rebounds and blocks categories in his return from a three-game absence due to a left rib sprain, but a rough showing from the free-throw line kept him in single digits in the scoring column for a third consecutive contest. Even without Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) for the foreseeable future, Gobert isn't expected to benefit from a dramatic uptick in usage on the offensive end, as his scoring will derive mainly from putbacks and the occasional post touch.

Gobert (ribs) has been cleared to play Friday against Cleveland, Serena Winters of Bally Sports Cleveland reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert missed Minnesota's last three games while dealing with a left rib sprain, but he's healthy enough to suit up Friday evening. The big man is averaging 14.3 points, 15.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.7 blocks through six March appearances.

Gobert (ribs) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert is in danger of missing his fourth straight contest Friday due to a left rib sprain. With Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) still out and Naz Reid (head) questionable, Luka Garza could continue to receive increased playing time.
