Three-time All-Star center has been suspended one game without pay for accruing his sixth Flagrant Foul point of the 2025-26 regular season, it was announced today by James Jones, Executive Vice President, Head of Basketball Operations.
Gobert, who entered Sunday’s game with five Flagrant Foul points, received a Flagrant Foul 1 with 7:24 remaining in the fourth quarter of the Timberwolves’ 104-103 victory over the San Antonio Spurs at Target Center.
In the NBA, if the player’s regular season total exceeds 5 points, he will receive an automatic suspension following the game in which his point total exceeds 5 points and for each additional Flagrant Foul committed during that regular season, as follows:
Player at 4 points commits a Flagrant Foul 2: Automatic 1-game suspension
Player at 5 or 6 points commits a Flagrant Foul 1: Automatic 1-game suspension
Player at 5 or 6 points commits a Flagrant Foul 2: Automatic 2-game suspension
Player at 7 points or more commits a Flagrant Foul 1 or 2: Automatic 2-game suspension
This season, Gobert is averaging 11 points, 11.4 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks per game.
Meanwhile, the Timberwolves are currently fourth in the Western Conference with a 26–14 record.
