When talking regarding the twelve fighters of Vincent Collet, impossible to ignore the giant Rudy Gobert, who over time became one of the executives of this team, while he quietly became one of the best pivots on the planet. Profile !
Surname: Gobert First name: Rudy Age: 31 Height: 2m16 Weight: 117 kilos Position: pivot Nickname: Gobzilla, La Gobe, The Stifle Tower, Steph Curry from St Quentin On CV: Cholet, Utah Jazz, Minnesota Timberwolves Honors in EDF: bronze medalist at the 2014 and 2019 World Cups, bronze medal at Euro 2015, silver medal at Euro 2022, silver medal at the 2021 Olympic Games. And we add 3 trophies for best defender of NBA and 3 All-Star Games because it slams.
Rudy Gobert-Bourgarel. A giant (2m16) that France has long awaited, and while waiting for another kind of phenomenon named Victor, it is indeed our national Rudy who will once once more keep the house during this 2023 World Cup. Son of Corinne Gobert and Rudy Bourgarel, former international basketball player, Rudy made his debut with Cholet before leaving for Jazz following the 2013 Draft. First drafted by the Nuggets but traded with Erik Green, oh the conk, Rudy struggling in his early days but according to his weight gain and a few stints with the Bakersfield Jam in the D-League, very quickly… something happened. That something? The birth of a defensive monster, a counter box like you rarely see.
Revealed to France during the 2014 World Cup with in particular a sacred mixtape once morest Spain, Rudy then won his place as titu, which he will not lose until today. “You don’t talk to him regarding Joel Embiid”, and until proven otherwise the boss of the blue racket always comes to us from St Quentin. Having become an overpowered pivot and one of the best defenders in … NBA history, yes, La Gobe has almost succeeded in making people forget his shortcomings in attack and his management of the arrival of COVID, so much he dominates in defense, his career is so beautiful, and we might also have surprises in Asia since it seems that Rudy is becoming an elite sniper or something like that.
Rudy Gobert who will never be Hakeem Olajuwon at the post, thank you, we understand, but who remains so much more than the stooge that some see in him… although frustration sometimes wins us over and he may have had a good head guilty on certain occasions. What should we remember from Roudi? It is that in 2023 he has infinitely more great career moments than pans, and that he remains one of the best pivots that France basketball has ever known.
Indisputable holder and real safe bet both in the NBA and in selection, Rudy IS the kind of player capable of making us win a big competition. Before the arrival of Victor Wembanyama and a new generation full of talent, wouldn’t 2023 be the perfect year to strike a blow, a blow of… 216 centimeters?
