Rudy Gobert is renowned around the NBA as one of the league's best screeners, and part of his acclimation to Minnesota was to learn the tendencies and preferences of his teammates when it came to screening for them.

Gobert, who missed his second consecutive game because of an ankle sprain Sunday, said recently that process has been going better in recent weeks, and said how he screens for his teammates is a combination of how they like him to screen for him and how the defense is playing.

"When guys are switching, I slip the screen more," Gobert said.
