All season long, the Minnesota Timberwolves have struggled in the non-Rudy Gobert minutes. Notably, the Wolves' defense is 13.1 points per 100 possessions better with Rudy on the court, a number that ranks in the 99th percentile per Cleaning the Glass.
The lack of rim protection from Julius Randle and Naz Reid has been a key factor in this problem. You can play around with lineup combinations to make the non-Rudy defense look more promising. However, the reality is that the Wolves haven't found any semblance of consistent defense with Gobert off the floor.
Saturday's loss to the Orlando Magic is yet another example of the Wolves' struggles in the non-Gobert minutes.
