On the Jazz’s first day of training camp, Rudy Gobert was asked how long it might take for he and his new teammates to get comfortable with one another, and he responded, “Apparently pretty quick. Bojan [Bogdanovic] threw me a lob on the first play.”
When a reporter on Friday began to ask Bogdanovic about the play, but mis-phrased it as, “Rudy said he threw you a lob,” the sharpshooter’s eyes grew wide, a look of incredulous disbelief spreading over his face.
“I don’t think that’s true that he threw me a lob!” he exclaimed in sincere protest, before smiling and laughing once the identities of who threw the pass and who threw it down were correctly established.
