Ignore his worst category (free-throw %) and he's worth 1.61.
The prototype punt-FT% pillar, and still nothing more — at 34 he posted 11/11.5/1.6 blocks on .68 shooting but a brutal line from the stripe. Elite FG%, rebounds and blocks at volume make him a cornerstone for exactly one build and a liability everywhere else. Eyes open that age is nibbling at the boards and blocks.
Rudy Gobert enters 2026-27 at #78 on our board — Round 7 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 11.6 points, 11.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 31.9 minutes a night. The value is built on rebounds and blocks, with free-throw percentage the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-free-throw percentage builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability helps the case: we project about 63 games.
