Andrew Wiggins dunked on Rudy Gobert so hard last season that he scarred the Jazz big man. This time around, Gobert didn't even attempt to go for the block when the Timberwolves' wing came barreling down the lane before taking off for a huge dunk.

It’s OK, Rudy. Nobody blames you for not trying to be a hero.
