Jazz's Rudy Gobert: Double-doubles with four blocks Friday

Gobert put up 13 points (4-9 FG, 5-8 FT), 13 rebounds, four blocks and one assist across 32 minutes in Friday's 96-89 win over the Jazz.

Analysis:

Gobert wasn't at his most efficient on the offensive end, but his towering frame stymied the Lakers on the interior, with Los Angeles' big-man rotation of Julius Randle, Timofey Mozgov, Tarik Black, Larry Nance and Thomas Robinson finishing with just 28 points on 10-for-22 shooting. The Jazz center now has two double-doubles under his belt in two games, but his playing time figures to trend closer to the 32 minutes he received Friday rather than the 40 he saw in Tuesday's season opener, especially now that Derrick Favors (knee) is healthy.
