Rudy Gobert - Plays despite finger surgery Gobert (finger) recorded one rebound in three minutes during Tuesday's 82-73 win over Canada in the quarterfinals of the Paris Olympics.
Impact Gobert didn't check in until 7:30 left in the second quarter and played only three minutes. Gobert's removal from the starting lineup and lack of playing time sparked speculation. However, he announced after the game that he injured his left ring finger in practice, underwent surgery Monday and was thankful to play at all Tuesday, per Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today. Gobert's status for Thursday's semifinal matchup versus Germany remains unclear.

Impact Edwards was firing on all cylinders in the blowout win, and he also became the youngest player since Dwight Howard in 2008 to score 20+ points for Team USA in the Olympics. The young star has been a top option for Team USA in the group phase, and he will likely continue to serve as a top contributor off the bench in the Olympic quarterfinals. Edwards averaged 16.7 points and 3.0 rebounds across 17.7 minutes per game in three group-stage appearances.

Impact Edwards scored in double figures for a second consecutive game to begin Olympic play, and he also tied for the team lead in steals during the comfortable victory that secured Team USA's place in the knockout round. Edwards has come off the bench for both of his appearances in the Paris Olympics so far, but he should continue to have opportunities to contribute in future matchups.

Rudy Gobert - Game-high 15 boards in Olympics win Gobert produced seven points (3-6 FG, 1-5 FT), 15 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 27 minutes in France's 94-90 overtime win over Japan in the Paris Olympic...
Impact Gobert was unstoppable on the glass Tuesday, and he totaled a game-high 15 rebounds. The 32-year-old was quiet on offense, but he will likely not be tasked with too much responsibility on the offensive end alongside Victor Wembanyama and Evan Fournier. The defensive juggernaut's size and ability to protect the paint will be crucial for the squad in securing a medal in Paris. However, Gobert will likely not be expected to shoulder much of the offensive workload with only 14 points in two group-phase games thus far.
