OUCH! Well, now we’re hearing that the T-Wolves have suspended Gobert for the first game of their playoff series against LeBron James and the L.A. Lakers! Double ouch!

Gobert, who’s made three NBA All Star teams, was being counted on to bring his defensive expertise (he’s also a three-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year) against an inspire LeBron James. But now…he’s out for Game 1. And keep in mind…these Play-In series are just two outta three!

Bottom line: bad job on Gobert’s part. I don’t know what the reason is…but this incident may have just earned the T-Wolves a one-way ticket OUT of the Playoffs. I’m Davey Mac…that’s my Sports Two Cents.
