Bojan Bogdanovic believes Rudy Gobert is playing at an MVP level

Rudy Gobert made another stellar performance for the Utah Jazz and his teammate Bojan Bogdanovic had nothing but praise for him.

“Every single game, he is a game-changer for us. He is playing on an MVP level right now — no more (just) Defensive Player of the Year,” Bogdanovic told reporters, via Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune.

Gobert had 22 points (8/8 shooting), 17 rebounds and five blocks on Saturday night, leading the Jazz to the 112-107 victory over the Dallas Mavericks.

The French center is averaging 15.6 points, a career-high 14.5 rebounds (second in the NBA), and 2.0 blocks per game this season.
