An NBA All-Star has almost reached his breaking point with the team he plays for. That player just so happens to be Utah Jazz forward Rudy Gobert.
Gobert has reportedly grown frustrated that the Jazz haven’t made any significant moves. There seems to be an idea that Utah should either move forward with Gobert or Donovan Mitchell.
“I know I am not usually @utahjazz breaking news guy, but a source close to situation has informed me that Rudy Gobert is at ‘him or me’ point with Donovan Mitchell and will demand that one of them be traded in next few days,” says Sean O’Connell of SiriusXM. “Doesn’t feel they will win championship together.”

With that being said, it appears Gobert has responded directly to the report.
Everyday has it’s own new “rumor” 🙄

Take that for what it’s worth.
The Gobert and Mitchell drama has been going on for some time now, at least in the media. It’s no secret their relationship has been through its ups and downs.
It also doesn’t help the Jazz were a no-show in the Western Conference Playoffs. They had another disappointing postseason performance, falling in six games to the Dallas Mavericks.
The Jazz should probably make a significant move or two this offseason. That’s going to require dealing Gobert or Mitchell.
