Rudy Gobert isn’t going to let LeBron James slide with his comment about the Utah Jazz.
Despite the fact that the Jazz have the best record in the league, both their star players were chosen last by LeBron on Kevin Durant in the NBA All-Star draft.

When asked about why the Jazz players were picked last, LeBron hilariously stated that no one ever wanted to play with the Jazz even in video games.

“There’s no slander tho the Utah Jazz. You’ve got to understand, just like in video games growing up, we never played with Utah. As great as Karl Malone and John Stockton was, we would never pick those guys in video games.”
During his Twitch stream on Friday night, Gobert trolled LeBron’s video game comments by wearing an NBA Jam shirt featuring Jazz legends John Stockton and Karl Malone.
Love @rudygobert27’s choice of shirts tonight. @WorldWideWob #TakeNote #NBATwitter #NBAAllStar pic.twitter.com/ilqvRqLGSl
