Rudy Gobert Suspended One Game for Flagrant Foul on Wembanyama

Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert has been suspended for one game, missing Tuesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. The ban is due to his fifth flagrant foul of the season, committed during Sunday's win over the Spurs for a reckless closeout on Victor Wembanyama. Gobert also received a technical for bumping a referee. He is slated to return Friday in Houston, with Naz Reid expected to start in his absence. Future flagrant fouls will result in a two-game suspension.
