Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert is so hot right now . . . from the free throw line

The Utah Jazz (20-13) are turning the corner right now. But, despite this entire seasons’ secret agenda being about placating Unrestricted Free Agent forward Gordon Hayward, the real corner stone of this franchise is center Rudy Gobert. The entire focus of this team is to be defense first. And he is the defensive anchor that makes it work. The 24 year old got paid, signing a $94 Million dollar / 4 year contract extension earlier in the year. And he’s worth every penny.

A future NBA All-Star, All-NBA player, and Defensive titan is a double double machine who protects the paint in such a manner that he has no peer right now.
