Rudy Gobert ejected in first quarter of Jazz victory
Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert was ejected in the first quarter of Thursday's 118-91 win over the Houston Rockets for an outburst following his second personal foul.
Gobert, who was fined earlier this week for criticizing officials following a loss to the Miami Heat, was called for a foul on the opening tip. He then picked up a second foul a few minutes later and proceeded to aggressively knock things off the scorer's table while checking out of the game, leading to the ejection. The Jazz visit the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday.
Gobert is averaging 39.6 FanDuel points through 26 games. numberFire's models expect him to record 13.1 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 2.1 blocks per game over the rest of the year.
