4 years agoUtah Jazz center Rudy Gobert had a double-double in the Thursday night win over the New Orleans Pelicans, finishing with 14 points and 12 boards. The big man was also proficient defensively by swatting three shots, but likely made his most significant contribution of the night by sinking two free throws to put his team up with just under seven seconds left in the game. After testing positive for COVID-19 back in March, the 27-year-old appeared to be showing no lingering effects of the virus as he logged 34 minutes in this one. The Jazz will look to keep things going on Saturday against the Thunder, with Gobert averaging 13 points and nearly 16 boards across two meetings with Oklahoma City on the year.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller
