Report: Jazz had team meeting after Rudy Gobert’s critical comments
Despite having clinched their first playoff berth since 2012, it’s not all smooth sailing for the Utah Jazz right now.
Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune reports on Monday that the Jazz had a team meeting after Rudy Gobert made some critical comments about teammates following Saturday’s loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.

You can read Gobert’s full remarks here.
The French big man has clearly been the team’s best two-way player since the All-Star break, and frustration is mounting with the Jazz is danger of losing the fourth seed in the Western Conference and the homecourt advantage for the first round of the postseason that goes along with it. They’re just 1-4 over their last five games, so hopefully this will be something of a turning point for them before the final nine games of the regular season.
