Overmatched vs. Detroit Gobert recorded six points (2-3 FG, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one block across 27 minutes during Thursday's 113-108 loss to the Pistons.

Impact Gobert didn't have a big role on offense, as evidenced by the fact that he only attempted three shots throughout 27 minutes, and he was unable to stop Jalen Duren, who had a massive 22-point, 14-rebound double-double. Gobert needs to step up for the Timberwolves, particularly on defense, but also on offense if Anthony Edwards (knee) isn't around. Gobert had scored at least 14 points in five of his previous six contests before Thursday, so there's a chance this was just a down game for the veteran.

Posts another double-double Gobert ended with 18 points (7-14 FG, 4-6 FT), 15 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 38 minutes during Friday's 108-104 loss to Portland.

Impact Gobert managed to build off the dominant 21-point, 12-rebound effort he delivered in the win over the Jazz on March 18, and the big man posted back-to-back double-doubles for the first time since his first two games following the All-Star break. Gobert seems to be putting it all together, and if he can string double-doubles consistently, he'd provide a huge boost for a Timberwolves team that's still without Anthony Edwards (knee). Gobert is averaging 11.1 points and 11.5 rebounds per game since the beginning of March, so even if he remains inconsistent on offense, he still delivers decent fantasy upside in all formats.

Dominates in blowout win Gobert logged 21 points (9-12 FG, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 147-111 victory over the Jazz.

Impact Gobert took full advantage of the fact that Utah boasts one of the worst frontcourts in the NBA, scoring at least 20 points for the first time in his past 13 games. While there have been a handful of subpar performances this season, on the whole, Gobert has been a success story, averaging 10.9 points, 11.4 rebounds and 1.6 blocks in 31.5 minutes per game.
