Rudy Gobert has been named the NBA Defensive Player of the Year for a record-tying fourth time.
Gobert had 72 first place votes and 433 total points. Victor Wembanyama finished second with 245 total points out of 19 first place votes, 44 second place votes and 18 third place votes. Bam Adebayo finished third with 91 total points ahead of Anthony Davis with 83.
Gobert joins Dikembe Mutombo and Ben Wallace as the only four-time winners of the award, which has been presented annually since the 1982-83 season.
In the 2023-24 regular season, Gobert ranked sixth in the NBA in blocks per game (2.13) and fourth in defensive rebounds per game (9.2). Opponents shot 43.4% from the field when Gobert was the closest defender, 6.1% lower than their expected percentage on those shots (49.5%). That difference was the largest among the 105 players who defended at least 800 shots during the season.
Led by Gobert, the Timberwolves had the best defensive rating, allowed the fewest points per game and held opponents to the lowest field goal percentage in the NBA. The top-ranked defense helped Minnesota (56-26) post the second-best record in franchise history and earn the No. 3 playoff seed in the Western Conference.

Suns Intend To Keep Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, Bradley Beal
선즈의 실망스러운 성적 때문에 많은 사람들이 Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, Bradley Beal의 슈퍼스타 조합을 해체할 것이라는 관측이 많지만, 한편에서는 선즈가 세 선수를 모두 유지한 상태로 약간의 변화만을 가져갈 것이라고 예상합니다. 특히 Durant가 지속성의 장점에 대해 계속 강조해온 말들을 근거로 이야기 하네요.
MAY 7, 2024 10:35 AM
The Phoenix Suns' disappointing first round performance against the Minnesota Timberwolves has led to some speculation that they may have to break up their superstar duo of Kevin Durant and Devin Booker in order to field a more balanced roster.
"Do people in the league say that?" said Brian Windhorst on The Rich Eisen Show. "Yes, they do. I talk to multiple people who think that's what they're going to have to do that. Do the Suns say that? No, they do not.
"I think the Suns' intention is to keep all three of these star players. Tweak the roster, tweak some of their systems and processes and try to be better next year."
Windhorst also stressed how Durant spoke about how the Suns could benefit from continuity.
The Suns have also yet to publicly decide the future of Frank Vogel as head coach.
