Mandatory Credit: Jesse Johnson-Imagn Images Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert has been suspended one game without pay after he sustained his sixth flagrant foul point of the season in Sunday's 104-103 victory over the San Antonio Spurs.
Gobert will sit out Tuesday's road game against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Gobert, 33, is averaging 11.0 points as well as a team-high 11.4 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game in his fourth season with the Timberwolves. He is shooting a team-leading 71.7% from the floor.
Under the NBA's flagrant foul points system, Gobert will now receive a suspension for each subsequent flagrant he picks up the rest of the season. If his next flagrant is a first-level offense, it will be another one-game suspension. A flagrant foul 2, or flagrant fouls of any variety after accumulating seven points, will result in a two-game suspension.
