'Personal reasons': Timberwolves' Rudy Gobert questionable for Game 2
Minnesota and Denver battle in Game 2 Monday night.
Rudy Gobert may not play Monday night when the Timberwolves face the Nuggets in Game 2 of the Western Conference semifinals in Denver.
The Timberwolves added Gobert to the injury report, giving him a questionable tag and citing "personal reasons."
What's going on in his life that could prevent him from suiting up for a playoff game? His partner has given birth to a baby boy, with the delivery happening on Monday morning, according to ESPN. It's unclear where the baby was born, but ESPN says Gobert is not with the team in Denver.
Gobert and his girlfriend, Julia Bonilla, announced in February that a baby was on the way.
The flight time from Minneapolis to Denver, by the way, is about an hour and 40 minutes. Game 2 tips off around 8:40 p.m. CT.
