Rudy Gobert

Any defender can camp out on the help side and occasionally uncork a well-timed rejection - Rudy Gobert’s game is so much more than that. Tasked with a mismatch checking the ever-crafty Luka Dončić out on the perimeter, the 7-foot-1 Utah Jazz center not only keeps up with the penetrating superstar but punches a subtle shot attempt out of bounds before the Dallas Mavericks even know what hit them. Gobert finished with 14 points, 17 rebounds and three blocks in the February 25, 2022 victory.
