Timberwolves' Rudy Gobert wants to play for a championship

Rudy Gobert wants to win a championship with his new team Minnesota Timberwolves in 2022-23 season. The Timberwolves beat the Los Angeles Clippers 119-117 in the preseason on Sunday. In July, the Utah Jazz traded Gober to the Timberwolves for Malik Beasley, Leandro Bolmaro, Patrick Beverley, Jarred Vanderbilt, Walker Kessler and a number of draft picks.

Rudy Gobert wants to play for the Timberwolves in the 2022-23 season. He believes the team has a good chance of winning an NBA championship. The Timberwolves have never advanced to the NBA Finals in their franchise history. They made a Western Conference Finals appearance during the 2003-04 season, but lost to Los Angeles Lakers in six games. Gobert was named to his sixth NBA All-Defensive First-Team selection.
