DOMINANT: Gobert couldn’t be stopped against the Kings

Gobert may not get the headlines when the Jazz are winning, such is the life of many centers in the NBA. However, in the Jazz’s 22-point win over the Sacramento Kings he should take all the headlines as he dominated all game.

He was just bigger, stronger and more physical than the Kings in every facet. He owned the paint, putting up 28 points, and amassed 15 rebounds. What’s more impressive about the rebounds is no Kings player had more than seven. Gobert also had three blocks to punctuate the performance.

Furkan Korkmaz, Philadelphia 76ers
