Fun Gobert Stats...

Rudy is the first NBA Darling we've had in a long, long time.

Which was the last? Or was there even any? I'm pretty sure the Jazz are a franchise that the entire league's other teams authorities and fanbases try to stay either mocking towards, or grow jealous of. Rudy's presence is so sweet that many cannot carry on the Jazz hate anymore.

Km had two MVPs and handfulls of ASGs, first team NBA selections, finals appearances, dream team spots, etc. That's about as favored as you can get, but as far as public likeability... I think you're right. Rudy is definitely the golden child at the moment.
 
Rudy also leads the entire NBA by a mile in "PNPG" at 25.3
Proposed Nicknames per game.

I like the current knick-names for Rudy just fine, so naturally I must submit one of my own. Rudy reminds me of nothing more than a Spider. So I call him Les Araignee (AH-Ron-Yay)

It is interesting to me that Rudy has gained so much national love. I don't quite understand it.

Updated OP. He is a rebound black hole. Nothing, not even light, can escape a black hole. His rebounding is golden-era good. Crazy.
 
Rudy has 3 games this season with 20 or more rebounds. Carlos Boozer was the last player to have 3 games with 20 or more rebounds in a season back in 2009-10, and the last of his 3 was actually a playoff game. The last Jazz man to get 3 games with 20 or more rebounds in the regular season was the Mailman way back in 1995-96.
 
I could only search back through 85-86 in basketball-reference, but from that season on no Jazz player has had 4 games with 20 or more rebounds in a season. Rudy has a great chance to do that.
