Rudy Gobert probably is rethinking his behavior over the past few days.
At the Utah Jazz’s shootaround on Monday, players met with reporters in the media room as part of the team’s measures in response to Coronavirus. Gobert made light of the situation by touching every microphone and recorder in front of him, according to Jazz reporter Eric Walden.
As part of the Jazz’s COVID-19 response, shootaround availability was done in the ZBBC media room today rather than on the court. As Rudy Gobert got finished discussing the situation, he stood up, leaned over and made it a point to touch every mic and recorder in front of him.

Gobert was showing that he wasn’t taking things very seriously regarding the possible spread of germs.
Fast forward to Wednesday, and Gobert along with teammate Emmanuel Mudiay were both listed as questionable for the Jazz’s Wednesday night game against the Thunder.

Neither player participated in shootaround, and both were later declared out for the game, though the Jazz changed Gobert’s status to questionable.
