The Rudy Gobert hater tour is still rolling on this offseason as eght-time NBA All-Star Dwight Howard is the latest to call in to question Gobert's legitimacy as one of the best defensive players in the league.
"It's tough to say because I never want to say anything negative about any players," Howard answered. "But, I don't think he deserved those defensive players of the years. I feel like he's a great team defender, but for what he did to get those defensive player of the years, I don't see it."August 30, 2024
