Gobert sets screens and stage for Wolves
The Straits Times
|December 14, 2024
MINNESOTA - The Minnesota Timberwolves knew that Rudy Gobert would be a difference maker on defense when he joined the team more than two National Basketball Association (NBA) seasons ago.
-
His statistics on offense do not jump off the page, but one of his greatest attributes is how he sets screens for Anthony Edwards to ignite the Timberwolves' scoring.
The duo will get another chance to excel when the Timberwolves host the Los Angeles Lakers on Dec 13 (Dec 14, Singapore time) in Minneapolis.
Against the Lakers, Minnesota will be looking for their fifth win in six games. Part of the team's recent success is the on-court dynamic between Gobert and Edwards, Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said.
"It has really developed over Rudy's time here. (There is) trust both ways. Rudy has long been one of the screen-setters," Finch said.
