Gobert’s outlet pass after boards is central to the Wolves’ transition plan. His role as a target on the fast break could lift Conley’s and Edwards’ numbers, while Gobert’s defense remains a constant anchor in half-court sets.

Gobert posted his lowest scoring and blocks tally in years, yet remains a steady floor presence with double-digit rebounds. A modest scoring upswing and continued blocks would sustain fantasy relevance, especially in formats valuing boards and blocks, while the added offensive role could unlock additional upside.

Gobert sits at 116.15 win shares, a defensive linchpin with strong per-game boards and blocks. His fantasy value centers on counting stats and efficiency, though offensive upside remains limited; health and role in Minnesota’s defensive schemes drive upside.

Gobert is a consistent presence whose absence at times can boost Nas Reed. His health status and the Wolves rotation will determine Reed and Edwards manufacture in a season with high upsides and risk.

Gobert’s presence frames the defense when Towns shifts to the four; the dynamic could redefine frontcourt defense and spacing, depending on how Towns balances offense and rim protection.
