Opposed to the Thunder with his Minnesota teammates, Rudy Gobert was expelled during the second quarter following an altercation with Kenrich Williams. The evening was cut short for the tricolor pivot.
But what happened between Rudy Gobert and Kenrich Williams? It all starts with a fairly innocuous action. Kenrich Williams attacks the circle, takes out the small floater and collapses on contact with Rudy. This one takes the feet once morest his adversary and collapses in his turn. Until then nothing very famous, we can see that in every game. As the Thunder winger gets up, Rudy then trips him and the OKC player wallows. In the jargon, we call it a magnificent dustpan. Inevitably, it is not very appreciated in front and it begins to be explained with the arms. The two players are then quickly separated by the referees and their teammates.

After viewing, the Men in Gray deem it unnecessary and excessive contact and penalize inside a blatant 2, with Williams getting away with a technique. Rudy’s match will therefore have lasted… 9 minutes. We would still be very curious to know the beginning of the affair because Gobert is not the type to lose his nerves in two seconds. Would his opponent have thrown him a few sweet words that would not have passed when he got up? We’ll see if the Big Man delivers his version of the facts. It will also be necessary to scrutinize if the NBA decides to impose an additional suspension on Gobert, as she was able to do with Pat Beverley not so long ago.
Rudy Gobert and Kenrich Williams will not be vacationing together. The pivot of the Blues unpinned and the referees sent him back to the shower with a little lead.
