Rudy Gobert responds to criticism after Timberwolves loss
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert responded to social media criticism following a 127-125 overtime loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Despite Anthony Edwards scoring 47 points, the Timberwolves were unable to secure a victory.
Gobert recorded a statistically unusual performance, finishing with five points and 19 rebounds. Notably, he failed to make a single field goal, shooting 0-for-8 from the floor and 0-for-2 from three-point range, with all five points coming from the free-throw line.
Following the game, a fan posted a video criticizing Gobert’s three-point attempts. Gobert replied to the video on social media, asking, “What you gonna do about it?” The incident highlights the ongoing tension regarding Gobert’s offensive range as he attempts to expand his shooting capabilities.
