Quiet in loss Wednesday
Gobert logged five points (1-4 FG, 3-9 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 133-95 loss to San Antonio in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Analyse
Gobert didn't have much of an impact, although he was certainly not alone as the Timberwolves took a hard loss. Although Gobert's defensive contributions have been a real positive, the fact that he has scored more than seven points only once in his past five games can't be overlooked. The series will now shift to Minnesota, where Gobert will look to get things back on track.

Strong defensive effort in Game 1
Gobert amassed seven points (3-7 FG, 1-5 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals in 30 minutes during Monday's 104-102 victory over San Antonio in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Analyse
While he fell short of his second straight double-double, Gobert's four steals and five combined steals and blocks were both highs for this postseason, and he recorded double-digit rebounds for the fifth time. The veteran center is averaging 7.6 points, 10.6 boards, 3.0 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.1 blocks through seven playoff contests heading into Game 2 on Wednesday.

Teases triple-double in victory
Gobert recorded 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 FT), 13 rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and one steal across 42 minutes during Thursday's 110-98 victory over the Nuggets in Game 6 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Analyse
Gobert was just two assists short of what would have been an unexpected triple-double, helping Minnesota close out the series against Denver. Across six games during the first round, Gobert averaged 7.7 points, 10.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.5 combined steals and blocks. While his numbers weren't jaw-dropping, Gobert's impact was undeniable, particularly on the defensive end, where he was able to at least somewhat contain Nikola Jokic.
