After watching Victor Wembanyama, Rudy Gobert made his debut in his new Wolves colours.
Debuts against Lakers substitutes in Las Vegas, since LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, Kendrick Nunn and Anthony Davis were in civilian clothes, and Darvin Ham therefore tested combinations with his substitutes.
However, it was Los Angeles that started better and overall dominated the first quarter, with D’Angelo Russell and Rudy Gobert struggling to find themselves on the pick-and-roll. Gradually, the leader still becomes aware of the space left to him by the screens of the French pivot, just like Anthony Edwards or Jordan McLaughlin.
Faced with this very limited number of Lakers, Minnesota manages without too much difficulty to take control of the match, Rudy Gobert (5 points, 12 rebounds) reaping a first victory (114-99) with his new club.
