Saturday night’s definitely qualified as that for Gobert, who finished with just five points on 2-9 shooting, in just 19 minutes on the court. The most ugly stat for Gobert, though, was in the plus-minus column: he finished as a -36 in a game the Jazz won by four.
“I just got my [expletive] kicked. I just wasn’t good tonight," Gobert said. "Props to coach for putting me on the bench, and putting [Derrick Favors] in, who had a great game.”
Time and time again, the Jazz struggled to contain the Bucks with Gobert playing. Thanks to Milwaukee’s big starting lineup, Gobert found himself guarding MVP candidate Giannis Antetokounmpo during the game.
