He changes everything inside the paint and is near impossible to shoot over both in man to man defender and rotating over the weakside, ranking #1 in Pro A France both this season and last in blocks per-40, as well as per game. Where Gobert really shines is on the defensive end, showing the potential to be an absolute game-changer with his terrific combination of size, length and instincts. He's generally not a great passer or decision maker with the ball in his hands either, but some of his struggles offensively may have been exacerbated by how disorganized his team looked in many stretches this season, as his coach did not always seem to put him in a position to fully play up to his very unique strengths. Outside of the paint, Gobert hasn't shown any real semblance of a jump-shot at this stage, and didn't look to be on the verge of developing one from what we saw in the drills of the NBA Combine in Chicago. His lack of strength, balance and toughness makes it difficult for him to finish through contact in traffic, and he needs to continue to improve his left hand. He doesn't show a very high skill-level with his back to the basket, not having the lower body strength needed to establish great position inside or a terribly diverse arsenal of footwork or post moves he can go to when his initial move is cut off. On the downside, Gobert is a fairly limited player if unable to simply catch and finish around the basket.

In addition to that, he also converts his free throw attempts at a decent clip (70%), which is surely a good sign for the future. He's solid on the offensive glass, pulling down 3.7 offensive rebounds per-40, which ranked among the top-15 players in Pro A. He catches virtually anything thrown his way, making him a terrific target for lobs, which helps explain his excellent efficiency. Gobert has incredibly soft hands, which in addition to his phenomenal wingspan give his guards an incredibly large radius they can throw the ball to around the basket. He made an outrageous 74% of his 2-point attempts this season, with most of his offense coming as a pick and roll finisher, off cuts, offensive rebounds and transition opportunities. Offensively, Gobert was not a very prolific option for Cholet this season, being responsible for just 9.3% of their total offensive possessions and scoring 14.7 points per-40 minutes, but being incredibly efficient in the looks he did receive. He does not appear to be anywhere near as athletic as the likes of physical specimens such as DeAndre Jordan or Javale McGee. He tested out fairly poorly at the NBA Combine in a number of different categories, even if it's difficult to gauge exactly how he compares to his American peers in these tests as it was likely his first time encountering them.
He's not an off the charts athlete, though, as he looks somewhat heavy running the floor at times and is not terribly explosive in terms of his sheer leaping ability. His 7-8 ½ wingspan is one of the longest ever measured in our extensive database, as is his outrageous 9-7 standing reach. Gobert is a relatively mobile big man, quick off his feet, and exceptionally long.
He gets pushed around quite a bit and loses his balance fairly easily, spending a decent amount of time sprawled out on the floor. While his upper body is looking better, he's very lean in his lower body, showing very skinny legs that affect him on both ends of the court at the moment.

Gobert continues to gradually fill out his frame, but is still a long ways away from reaching his full potential physically. With Turkish coach Erman Kunter leaving for Euroleague team Besiktas, Cholet turned to longtime Le Havre coach Jean Manuel Sousa this season, finding mixed results and disappointingly missing on the playoffs for just the second time in the past 12 years.
Video Analysis by Mike SchmitzĪfter playing just 14 minutes per game in 2011-2012, Rudy Gobert saw his minutes increase to 23 per game in 2012-2013, being followed heavily by NBA scouts and executives in virtually every game he played in Pro A France.
