Rudy Gobert confirmed Tuesday night he has reached a contract extension with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
ESPN and other outlets reported earlier Tuesday that Gobert is getting a three-year, $110 million extension with Minnesota, which acquired the French big man in a trade with Utah in 2022.in their season opener, but the four-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year acknowledged his happiness at staying in Minnesota while structuring his new contract to allow his team to be more competitive.
"So I'm really grateful, I'm really happy, and now the goal is still the same. Regardless if we would have had a deal or not, the goal is to win a championship.” “I think it's about finding balance," Gobert said. “Every year, every time I sign a contract, I always try to leave a little bit for the team, be able to realize that I'm grateful to be able to play on what I'm earning. Being from where I come from, it's an amazing blessing, and at the same time, being able to not be too greedy and leave some on the table for our competitiveness as a team. I think it's important. I'm grateful that I've had great people around me.
