The Boston Celtics inquired with the Minnesota Timberwolves at the trade deadline about the availability of Rudy Gobert.

The Wolves are not believed to be actively shopping Gobert despite their ongoing efforts to shake up their roster.

Rival teams have received the impression that Julius Randle is the player they would prefer to trade should a scenario present itself.

Gobert signed a three-year, $109.5 million extension with the Wolves before the 2024-25 season that runs through the 2027-28 season. Gobert has continued to be one of the NBA's elite defensive centers.
