VIDEOS: Wiggins posterizes Gobert twice
Brace Hemmelgarn / USA TODAY Sports
Andrew Wiggins has no fear. The Minnesota Timberwolves rookie proved as much Monday.
Rudy Gobert usually gets the best of players who come at him in the paint. But even the best shot-blockers in the game can't swat them all.
Wiggins attacked Gobert twice and crushed a pair of dunks on The Stifle Tower. The second one was especially vicious.
Wiggins destroyed him.

And here was the appetizer:
Wiggins has proven throughout his inaugural season he's capable of doing many things. Dunking is one of them.
Gobert, of course, got some revenge with an emphatic block.
