Minnesota Timberwolves big man Rudy Gobert decided to quickly take ownership of his actions on Sunday, apologizing publicly for punching his teammate, Kyle Anderson, in the chest.
"We’re not proud of that behavior by anybody," head coach Chris Finch said, via The Athletic."We really haven’t dug too far into the root cause of it. But guys were just frustrated. We weren’t playing well and weren’t sharing the ball. We were getting beat in all the little areas."
Though the Timberwolves' win was crucial for their seeding in the play-in tournament, the scene with Gobert and Anderson took center stage on Sunday.
