Brad Rempel-USA TODAY Sports

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert is questionable for Game 2 on Monday night in Denver due to personal reasons.

Gobert contributed six points, 13 rebounds, three blocks and three assists in Minnesota's 106-99 win on Saturday in the opener of the Western Conference semifinal series.

The three-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year and three-time All-Star averaged 14.0 points, 12.9 rebounds and 2.1 blocks in 76 games (all starts) during the regular season.

The 7-foot-1 Gobert, 31, has career averages of 12.7 points, 11.8 boards and 2.1 blocks in 757 games (665 starts) for the Utah Jazz (2013-22) and Timberwolves.

Naz Reid, this season's NBA Sixth Man of the Year winner, could slot into the starting lineup if Gobert is unable to go against the defending champions.
