Wed Feb 2819:55Rudy Gobert Available For Minnesota Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) is available for Wednesday's matchup against Memphis. Gobert played with a sprained left ankle in Tuesday's win over the Spurs. He was on the court for 39 minutes against San Antonio. Should the center minutes be limited, Naz Reid, as a power forward in the front court alongside the returning Karl-Anthony Towns, will fill the void against a weak and depleted Memphis lineup.

Wed Feb 2815:55Minnesota Lists Rudy Gobert As Questionable
The Minnesota Timberwolves have listed center Rudy Gobert (ankle) as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies. Gobert fought through a sprained left ankle in Tuesday's victory over the San Antonio Spurs, but his status is uncertain for the second half of Minnesota's back-to-back. It's worth noting the 31-year-old interior presence logged 39 minutes Tuesday, so if the T-Wolves elect to give Gobert the night off, expect Naz Reid to start at power forward in the frontcourt alongside the returning Karl-Anthony Towns against a depleted Memphis squad that ranks 24th in fantasy points allowed to the position, per DraftKings scoring.

Tue Feb 2707:02Rudy Gobert Regarded As Questionable For Tuesday
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) has officially been listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Spurs. After missing Saturday's clash with the Nets due to an ankle sprain, Gobert practiced on Monday and "looked good," according to Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch. However, the team has refrained from declaring him available for Tuesday's game. Naz Reid had 27 minutes off the bench without Gobert on Saturday and would benefit from his absence again. It's a matchup against Victor Wembanyama, who has been terrific defensively during his rookie campaign, but all of the Timberwolves bigs have posted solid numbers in the previous head-to-head meetings this season.

Mon Feb 2616:02Rudy Gobert “Looks Good” In Monday’s Practice
Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch says center Rudy Gobert (ankle) went through practice Monday and expects the big man to participate in Tuesday's session. "[Gobert] looked good", Finch said. Gobert sprained his left ankle in Friday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks and sat out Saturday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. Minnesota will officially update the three-time Defensive Player of the Year's game status for Tuesday's meeting with the San Antonio Spurs later on Monday.

Sat Feb 2419:40Rudy Gobert Won't Play Versus Brooklyn
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) won't suit up on Saturday versus Brooklyn. He tweaked his ankle on Friday in the loss to Milwaukee. However, the injury must not be too serious, considering the multi-time MVP logged 38 minutes and ended the night with a double-double. Nevertheless, without Gobert in the lineup, Naz Reid will be a popular DFS value option. At the same time, Kyle Anderson, averaging 17 points and eight boards without Gobert on the floor this year, is someone to consider.

Sat Feb 2417:18Rudy Gobert Questionable Against The Nets
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) is questionable heading into Saturday's matchup against the Nets. The multi-time Defensive Player of the Year reported after Friday's meeting with Milwaukee that he tweaked his ankle. However, he still logged 38 minutes and finished with a double-double with two blocks. That said, considering Brooklyn is one of the worst teams in the National Basketball Association, fantasy managers may not see Gobert out there on Saturday. But even if he plays, he might be limited. As a result, Naz Reid could see a bump in fantasy production, even more so if Gobert is officially declared out.

Sat Feb 2406:26Rudy Gobert Battles Through Ankle Injury Friday
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert said he sprained his ankle in Friday's contest against Milwaukee but isn't overly worried about the injury. The French giant logged 38 minutes in a 112-107 loss and finished with 12 points, 19 rebounds, and two blocks. It looks like Gorbert feels ready to go on Saturday when the T-Wolves complete a back-to-back set against the Nets, but fantasy managers will need to keep a close eye on official lineup news. Naz Reid would be in line for a boost in playing time without Gobert.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) is available ahead of Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. The big man has been cleared to play after being listed as questionable heading into the contest. Gobert was dealing with a left ankle sprain but is expected to play his normal role on Sunday. He'll play alongside Mike Conley, Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, and Karl-Anthony Towns. Fantasy managers can feel safe plugging Gobert back into their lineups on Sunday.

Wed Jan 1018:04Chris Finch Says Rudy Gobert Is Out
Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch says center Rudy Gobert (hip) is out on Wednesday against the Boston Celtics. Gobert is dealing with soreness in his left hip and will sit out on the second half of Minnesota's back-to-back set. Though some of the luster from this clash of the titans may be dissipated with Kristaps Porzingis (knee) also out for Boston, Gobert's absence is a big upgrade for the outlooks of Al Horford and the Celtics' ability to penetrate the paint. Karl-Anthony Towns would figure to be joined in the starting frontcourt by per-minute machine Naz Reid, who deserves plenty of DFS attention on Wednesday. In 12 games without Gobert in 2022-23, Reid averaged 16.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.7 treys, and 2.4 combined steals and blocks. Point forward Kyle Anderson should also get more playing time to match up with a Celts squad missing their top big man.

Sat Dec 2 202316:13Rudy Gobert Cleared For Action On Saturday
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (hip) will suit up on Saturday against the Hornets. The multi-time Defensive Player of the Year didn't pop up on the injury report until Saturday morning, although it's likely the Timberwolves were just being overly cautious. Gobert has had another efficient season, averaging 12.6 points, 11.6 boards, and 2.3 blocks in 18 games. Those numbers could increase for Saturday's game, considering Anthony Edwards (hip) remains sidelined. In addition, Charlotte has struggled to slow down opposing bigs at times throughout the 2023-24 campaign. That said, Gobert's availability should mean fewer minutes for Naz Reid, who would have been a viable streaming option in all fantasy setups.

Sat Dec 2 202313:14Rudy Gobert May Miss Saturday's Game
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (hip) is questionable for Saturday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. The 31-year-old had 15 points, 13 rebounds, and three blocks on Thursday night against his former team, the Utah Jazz. But now he's a late addition to the injury report because of hip soreness. The Timberwolves could be without another starter versus Charlotte, with Anthony Edwards (hip) expected to miss his second consecutive contest. As a result, Naz Reid could be tasked with taking Gobert's spot in the lineup. At the same time, there's room for guys like Kyle Anderson, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and Troy Brown Jr. to get more involved for those looking for a deep-league streaming option.

Thu Oct 5 202319:13Rudy Gobert Records Three Blocks Against Dallas
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert played well in Thursday's preseason win over the Mavs in Abu Dhabi. The multi-time Defensive Player of the Year fell short of a double-double, amassing nine points and eight rebounds. However, he made up for it by accumulating three blocks. With Karl-Anthony Towns, who had a team-high 20 points in this one, and Anthony Edwards expected to be the top producers offensively for the Wolves this season, Gobert could suffer in that area. But he can still be a valuable member of any fantasy squad, considering his ability on the glass and defensive prowess.

Sun Sep 3 202309:35Rudy Gobert Believes Timberwolves Have Great Potential
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert sees a lot of upside in the team. "I think we have the potential to be really, really good," Gobert told EuroHoops. "I think we're going to have a good training camp. Build good habits. I think we have the potential to be a top-two defensive team. And I don't need to talk about how talented we are offensively. If we come in with the mindset of doing whatever it takes to have the team win and holding each other accountable while doing that, I think we're going to have a surprisingly really good year." Gobert will hope to improve personally as well as he heads into his second season in Minnesota. The French giant posted 13.4 points, 11.6 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in 2022-23. It was the first campaign since his rookie year Gobert averaged fewer than two blocks per game, and he's also had much better scoring and rebounding years.

Thu Apr 20 202318:58Rudy Gobert Questionable For Game 3
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is listed as questionable for Game 3 against the Denver Nuggets on Friday. The big man has been dealing with a lingering back issue lately, but continues to play through it. The Wolves are already down 0-2 in the series, so losing Gobert certainly wouldn't help. Karl-Anthony Towns would likely shift over to center with Kyle Anderson and Taurean Prince getting more minutes at the power forward spot.

Tue Apr 18 202321:56Rudy Gobert Questionable With Back Spasms
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is questionable to play Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets. Gobert is dealing with some back spasms which may cause him to sit Game Two of their playoff series. With Naz Reid (wrist) already out, Kyle Anderson would be the likely next man up if Gobert is unable to go. Karl-Anthony Towns would likely slide over to the center position.

Sat Apr 15 202321:50Rudy Gobert Questionable For Playoff Opener
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is questionable ahead of the postseason meeting with the Nuggets. The 30-year-old has battled back spasms of late. However, he was still out there for the play-in game versus OKC on Friday, finishing with a double-double in 33 minutes of work. It will be surprising if Gobert isn't available for Game 1. But considering he could be limited due to the injury while squaring off with MVP candidate Nikola Jokic, DFS managers may want to avoid having him in the lineup.

Thu Apr 13 202318:25Rudy Gobert Uncertain For Friday's Contest
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is eligible to return to the court after serving his one-game suspension. However, head coach Chris Finch said Gobert's status is uncertain for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It sounds like the big man is dealing with back spasms. This is a playoff game, so the assumption is that Gobert will play even at less than 100 percent. If not, Karl-Anthony Towns will likely shift over to center with Taurean Prince and Kyle Anderson getting more action at power forward.

Mon Apr 10 202314:55Rudy Gobert Suspended One Game
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert has been suspended one game for his actions during Sunday's contest. The 30-year-old big man punched fellow teammate Kyle Anderson while in the huddle. In response, Gobert has been suspended for Tuesday's play-in matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. A tough blow to the T-Wolves who are already without Jaden McDaniels (wrist) as well. The expectation is that Karl-Anthony Towns will take over Gobert's spot in the rotation. That means, Kyle Anderson and Taurean Prince will have bigger roles with Gobert sidelined on Tuesday.

Sun Apr 9 202319:49Rudy Gobert Sent Home On Sunday
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert didn't return to Sunday's meeting with the New Orleans Pelicans after punching teammate Kyle Anderson during a huddle. It's unknown how the team will address the situation. The league may also impose a punishment. As a result, Gobert may not be in the lineup on Tuesday for the play-in matchup against the Lakers. If that's the case, Karl-Anthony Towns will likely take Gobert's spot in the middle, with Kyle Anderson or Taurean Prince entering the starting lineup.

Sun Mar 19 202322:30Rudy Gobert Receives Questionable Tag For Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (ankle) is listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain for Monday's contest against the New York Knicks. The French seven-footer has been questionable in 52 games this season and has played in 67% of those. Probability-wise, he should play, especially considering that he played 30 minutes in their last game despite being questionable in that one too. If he does have to stay on the sidelines, Naz Reid (calf) would be a big streaming option if he plays. Otherwise, Kyle Anderson and even Luka Garza could be in line for some waiver adds.
