SALT LAKE CITY, UT – MAY 6: Rudy Gobert #27 of the Utah Jazz dunks the ball in the second half of their 102-91 loss to the Golden State Warriors in Game Three of the Western Conference Semifinals during the 2017 NBA Playoffs at Vivint Smart Home Arena on May 6, 2017 in Salt Lake City, Utah (Photo by Gene Sweeney Jr/Getty Images) /

Gobert becomes Jazz leading scorer

“My bold prediction is that Rudy Gobert will lead the team in scoring with 20 points per game.

After seeing him in the preseason and considering how well Ricky Rubio runs the pick-and-roll, I’m confident he can do it. Not to mention, he averaged just 7.7 shot attempts per game last year so as that figure goes up, his points per game should go up drastically as well.”
