Gobert supplied 19 points (7-11 FG, 5-6 FT), 16 rebounds, one assist and four blocks in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 118-107 victory over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert led all players in Wednesday's contest in rebounds and blocks while ending as the lone Timberwolves player with a double-double in a well-rounded performance. Gobert has tallied at least 15 points and 15 boards in nine games this season, posting a double-double in 14 of his last 15 outings.

Gobert totaled seven points (1-6 FG, 5-8 FT), 18 rebounds and two assists across 33 minutes during Saturday's 102-97 loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert posted 18-plus rebounds for the fifth time this season, and he's now averaging 14.0 rebounds across his last 10 games. The lack of scoring is disappointing from a putback-threat standpoint, especially in the context of Gobert averaging 19.4 points on 72.3 percent shooting across his last five games entering Saturday. Gobert is amid a strong stretch, but his season-long 66.2 percent shooting at the rim is his lowest mark since the 2015-16 campaign.

Gobert recorded 15 points (4-5 FG, 7-14 FT), 18 rebounds and four blocks over 37 minutes during Sunday's 109-105 victory over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert struggled from the free throw line, but that's perhaps the only blemish in his performance, as he was efficient from the field and absolutely dominant near the rim. This was his sixth game with at least four blocks, and it was also the fourth time in which he grabbed 18 or more boards. Gobert is averaging 13.9 points, 13.7 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game in seven January appearances.

EDGE Analysis
Gobert returned after missing the previous game with a hip injury, leading all players in Friday's contest in scoring and rebounds while adding a pair of blocks and ending three boards short of the 20-rebound mark in just under 30 minutes. Gobert posted his second-highest point total of the season while reeling in his sixth game with 17 or more rebounds.

Gobert (hip) is available for Friday's game against Portland.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert has the green light to return to the lineup after sitting out Wednesday's game versus Boston. Kyle Anderson filled in admirably for Gobert on Wednesday, scoring 17 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 FT) with eight rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 39 minutes.

Gobert (hip) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert is in danger of missing his second consecutive game Friday due to left hip soreness. If the star center is ruled out, Naz Reid and Kyle Anderson will likely continue to receive extended playing time.

Gobert (hip) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Celtics, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert was questionable for Wednesday's matchup due to a sore left hip, and he'll be sidelined for the second half of a back-to-back set. Naz Reid, Kyle Anderson and Troy Brown could see additional playing time Wednesday, while Gobert's next chance to return will be Friday against the Trail Blazers.

Gobert is questionable for Wednesday's game against Boston due to left hip soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert posted 21 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 21-point win over the Magic, but he may take a seat for the second half of Minnesota's back-to-back set. If he's sidelined, Naz Reid, Kyle Anderson and Troy Brown would be candidates for increased minutes.

Gobert closed with 21 points (8-10 FG, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 113-92 win over Orlando.
EDGE Analysis
Tuesday marked the 23rd time this season Gobert has recorded a double-double, which is tied with reigning MVP Joel Embiid for sixth-most in the NBA. Gobert has grabbed 12 or more boards in five of his last six games and has blocked two or more shots in two of his last three appearances.

Gobert ended with 10 points (3-8 FG, 4-6 FT), 15 rebounds and one assist in 38 minutes during Monday's 112-106 loss to New York.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran center has delivered three straight double-doubles and five in the last six games en route to 21 through 31 contests. Gobert's looking much more comfortable in his second season with Minnesota, and over that six-game surge he's averaging 14.8 points, 12.3 boards, 1.5 blocks and 1.2 assists.
