Gobert (ribs) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert is in danger of missing Saturday's contest due to a left rib sprain he suffered against the Clippers. If the defensive stalwart is ruled out, Naz Reid will likely start at center in his absence.

Gobert recorded eight points (4-7 FG), 11 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 33 minutes but didn't return for the final 7:18 of the fourth quarter of Tuesday's 118-100 win over the Clippers due to a rib injury.
EDGE Analysis
Minnesota initially labeled Gobert as questionable to return when he checked out of the game, but he never re-entered the contest. According to Chris Hine of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Gobert said after the game that he was feeling fine and avoided any fractures to his ribs, but he noted that it was painful for him to move and breathe because of the location of the injury. The good news for Gobert is that Minnesota is off until Saturday's game against the Jazz, so he'll have three full days to rest up.

EDGE Analysis

Gobert (hamstring) will play versus the Clippers on Tuesday, Chris Hine of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert was unable to play Sunday night against the Lakers, but he has the green light to play Tuesday and coach Chris Finch made no mention of any restrictions. Naz Reid is likely to lose some steam with Minnesota getting some reinforcements.

Gobert is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Clippers due to right hamstring soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert is at risk of missing a second consecutive game due to his nagging hamstring soreness, with Minnesota suffering a loss to the Lakers in his absence Sunday. His status is of critical importance with Karl-Anthony Towns set for a multi-week recovery timeline following knee surgery.

Gobert (hamstring) will not play Sunday against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
The big man was added to the injury report earlier in the day with a tight hamstring and he'll ultimately be held out as the Wolves take a cautious approach. Minnesota is also down Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) and Kyle Anderson (shoulder), so it should be a high-minute night for Naz Reid up front.

Gobert is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers due to right hamstring tightness.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert and Kyle Anderson (shoulder) are late additions to Minnesota's injury report, joining Anthony Edwards (ankle) as questionable. The Timberwolves' frontcourt would rely heavily on Naz Reid again if Gobert is sidelined for just the third time his season.

Gobert produced seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 FT), 17 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 37 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 113-104 overtime loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran center got slapped with a technical late in the fourth quarter after making a money sign with his fingers at the refs followed his fifth personal foul, and the Timberwolves felt his absence once the game went to OT. Gobert has been on an absolute tear on the glass and at the rim, pulling down at least 14 rebounds in five straight games and seven of eight since the All-Star break while recording multiple rejections in all eight contests. Over that stretch, he's averaging 13.9 points, 15.4 boards, 2.8 blocks and 1.1 assists while shooting 66.2 percent from the floor.

Gobert racked up 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-5 FT), 14 rebounds, three blocks and two steals across 40 minutes during Thursday's 113-111 victory over Indiana.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert registered his 44th double-double of the season Thursday and has reached that mark for the fourth straight game. He'll have more responsibility grabbing rebounds moving forward with Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) out indefinitely. Over his last 10 games, Gobert has averaged 14.8 points on 66.3 percent shooting, 14.4 rebounds and 2.7 blocks over 36.3 minutes per game.
