The Minnesota Timberwolves are riding a heater, but they’ll have to continue that ride without their big.
Per ESPN.com:
MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert has received a one-game suspension due to the number of flagrant fouls he has picked up over the course of the season.
Â
NBA officials said Gobert will serve his suspension Tuesday when the Timberwolves visit the Milwaukee Bucks.
Gobert received a flagrant foul 1 during the fourth quarter of the Timberwolves’ 104-103 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday. That gave him six flagrant foul points for the season.
Â
NBA rules say a player receives an automatic suspension after a game in which his flagrant foul point total exceeds five.
The Timberwolves are 26-14, sit fourth in the Western Conference, and have won 16 of their last 22 games.
