Gobert (knee) totaled four points (2-4 FG), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 21 minutes in Monday's 116-69 win over the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert's return from an 11-game absence was a successful one, as he picked up right where he left off on the boards. With rookie Donovan Mitchell and sixth man extraordinaire Alec Burks combining for 26 shot attempts and 48 points, there wasn't much of a need for Gobert to push the issue offensively in his first game back, which resulted in a modest four shot attempts. Additionally, the Jazz's commanding early lead also allowed head coach Quin Snyder to limit his minutes, an ideal scenario after an extended absence. Gobert should see a progressive bump in minutes over coming games, which should enable him to return to his usual status as a double-double candidate on any given night.

Gobert will start Monday's game against the Wizards, Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
After missing 11 games with a bone bruise, Gobert will immediately reclaim his spot in the starting five, meaning Derrick Favors will shift back down to power forward. Gobert is expected to face some sort of minutes restriction, however, making him a fairly risky play in daily contests.

Gobert (knee) will play in Monday's game against the Wizards, Andy Larsen of KSL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
After taking part in a light practice Sunday without any lingering issues, Gobert will make his return to the lineup from the bone bruise in his right knee, which is much earlier than expected. Considering the lengthy absence, however, the Jazz are going to be as cautious as possible with their big man and according to Kyle Goon of the Salt Lake Tribune, Gobert will be on a minutes restriction. An exact limit hasn't been provided, though fantasy owners may want to wait to activate him until Gobert is back on a full workload. With Gobert back, the likes of Derrick Favors, Jonas Jerebko and Thabo Sefolosha all take a hit to their fantasy value.

Gobert (knee) took part in a light practice Sunday and is now questionable for Monday's matchup with the Wizards, Kyle Goon of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert was originally given a timetable of four-to-six weeks on Nov. 12 with a bone bruise in his right knee, but appears to be progressing much quicker than expected in his recovery. It's been just three weeks since then and he's already gone through a light practice, though the exact details of that session remain unclear. While that bodes well for a return in the near future, it wouldn't be surprising if he ultimately missed a game or two more, especially considering the Jazz are heading into a back-to-back set. Either way, Gobert will be considered questionable for Monday and his return would ultimately mean decreased roles for the likes of Derrick Favors, Jonas Jerebko and Thabo Sefolosha. Look for another update on Gobert following Monday's morning shootaround.

Gobert is expected to miss four-to-six weeks with a bone bruise in his right knee, Shams Charania of Yahoo! Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert originally suffered the injury during Friday's game against Miami in a collision with Dion Waiters. A four-to-six week timetable puts a return in mid-to-late December, though that will depend upon how quickly the recovery process goes. With Gobert out, that likely means more minutes at center for the likes of Ekpe Udoh, Derrick Favors and Jonas Jerebko, though the Jazz did experiment with a smaller lineup on Saturday that featured Thabo Sefolosha as a starter at power forward next to Favors at center.

Gobert (knee) won't play during Saturday's game against the Nets, Kyle Goon of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miami Heat guard Dion Waiters fell into Gobert's knee during Friday's contest. The severity of the injury has not been disclosed, though it's apparently giving him enough discomfort to force him to sit out Saturday's game. In his stead, Ekpe Udoh and Derrick Favors will likely see increased usage.

Gobert is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Nets due to a knee injury, Kyle Goon of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miami Heat wing Dion Waiters fell into Gobert's knee during Friday night's contest. The big man subsequently headed into the locker room, but ultimately returned to the game. The issue looked potentially serious until Gobert returned, so it would not be surprising to see the Jazz exercise caution with their prized center. However, his final status will likely be determined closer to tip-off after he gets some warm-ups in. Derrick Favors could see some more usage should Gobert ultimately sit out, while Ekpe Udoh would presumably get the start at center and see heavier minutes than usual.

Gobert scored 12 points (4-7 FG, 4-5 FT) while adding 12 rebounds and two blocks in 35 minutes during Friday's 84-74 loss to the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
He left the game late in the third quarter with a knee injury after getting bumped on the offensive end, but Gobert was back out to begin the fourth and didn't seem any worse for wear. The double-double was his eighth in 12 games, while Friday's performance was the ninth time this season he's recorded multiple blocks.

Gobert scored 16 points (4-8 FG, 8-12 FT) to go along with 15 rebounds, one assist, two steals and three blocks in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 104-97 loss to the Sixers.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert had his way with Joel Embiid (rest) out of action Tuesday, posting his seventh double-double of the season. He's averaging 14.1 points, 10.4 rebounds and 2.5 blocks overall, making him one of the elite fantasy options at center.

Gobert produced 16 points (5-9 FG, 6-9 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and three blocks across 38 minutes in Wednesday's 112-103 overtime win against the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Gobert joined Ricky Rubio as one of only two Jazz starters to hit double digits in the scoring column, posting his second straight double-double in the process. The 25-year-old rim protector also notched multiple blocks for the fifth consecutive contest and encouragingly got his shot attempts back up after back-to-back games in which he'd put the ball up just five times apiece. Gobert's improvement from the free-throw line continues as well, as he's posting a career-best 72.4 percent success rate from the charity stripe following another solid tally Wednesday.
