Rudy Gobert had already embarrassed Nerlens Noel by absolutely swallowing the ambitious rookie’s dunk attempt. The strut and stare-down that follows is down right emasculating.
Is there a better rim-protector in basketball than the Utah Jazz’s 7-2 Frenchman? We don’t think so. And not just for the many awesome highlights like this one and so many others that he’s offered during a breakout sophomore campaign – the numbers love Gobert, too.
After this play, though, it’s safe to say that Noel doesn’t.
