Rudy Gobert fouled out of the Minnesota Timberwolves overtime loss at the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night. When he was called for his sixth foul, Gobert flashed the “money” sign at the officials as he headed to the bench. The Wolves center was called for a technical foul, which helped the Cavs send the game to the extra period.
Following the game, Gobert didn’t let up in his criticism of the way sports betting may be influencing officials.
“I made some mistakes. I airballed a dunk. Mistakes happen. Referees make mistakes, too,” Gobert said. “But sometimes I think it’s more than mistakes. I think everyone that’s in this league knows. I think it’s got to get better.”
Gobert added that he’s willing to be the “bad guy again that speaks what I think is the truth.” He added that he thinks gambling is hurting the NBA.
“I think it’s hurting our game. I know the betting and all that is becoming bigger and bigger, but it shouldn’t feel that way,” Gobert said.
