Gilbert Arenas rips Rudy Gobert for missing Timberwolves’ Game 2 win due to son’s birth
NY Post
Former NBA All-Star Gilbert Arenas criticized Timberwolves defensive star Rudy Gobert for missing Monday’s Game 2 win against the Nuggets in their second-round playoff series due to the birth of his baby boy Monday morning.
“It’s a baby, bro. It’s gonna be there when you get back, we hope,” Arenas said on his “Gil’s Arena” show before Minnesota’s 106-80 road win to grab a 2-0 series lead. “I’m just saying, the baby, whatever you think you about to do, he going to be asleep.”
Gobert, the three-time Defensive Player of the Year, was questionable entering Monday’s game after his baby boy was born, according to ESPN.
There had been questions about whether he would travel to Denver for the game, the outlet reported.
Gobert and his girlfriend, Julia Bonilla, announced her pregnancy in February with an Instagram post showcasing Bonilla’s bump.
Arenas, an 11-year veteran and father of four, believed Gobert should have been there for his team.
