Double-double vs. Indiana Gobert racked up 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-5 FT), 14 rebounds, three blocks and two steals across 40 minutes during Thursday's 113-111 victory over Indiana.

He'll have more responsibility grabbing rebounds moving forward with Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) out indefinitely.

Impact Gobert recorded his three consecutive double-doubles, and the Frenchman has been an absolute model of consistency in recent weeks -- he has posted a double-double in all but one of his 13 appearances since the beginning of February. Even though Gobert is not expected to take over a game offensively, he's consistent enough to remain an above-average fantasy alternative in all formats considering everything else he brings to the table.

Impact Gobert grabbed 16 rebounds for the second consecutive game, and he's been on an absolute tear in recent weeks, posting 11 double-doubles across his last 12 appearances.

Impact Gobert sprained his ankle during Friday's loss to the Bucks and didn't play during Saturday's win over the Nets.

Out against Nets Gobert (ankle) will not play in Saturday's game against the Nets, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.
Impact Gobert suffered his ankle injury Friday against the Bucks, but he was carrying a questionable tag prior to this update which suggests that he's likely day-to-day. Luckily for Minnesota, they have two days off after Saturday's contest. Karl-Anthony Towns is likely to get more minutes at center as a result, with guys like Naz Reid, Kyle Anderson and Jaden McDaniels potentially soaking up more minutes as well.
