The NBA's final day of the regular season ended on a sour note when an altercation between center Rudy Gobert and guard Kyle Anderson made headlines.

Gobert punched Anderson on the Timberwolves bench after the two exchanged words, and the former was sent home by the team before the game ended.

In response to the incident, Gobert took to his Twitter page to break his silence and express remorse for his actions.

He stated that emotions got the best of him and that he should not have reacted the way he did, regardless of what was said.

The incident was an ugly moment for Gobert and the Timberwolves, especially at a time when teamwork should have been a top priority.

However, confrontations are not uncommon in sports and are just a matter of where and when they happen.

Unfortunately for Gobert and Minnesota, their internal battle was caught on camera, and they now have to deal with the backlash.

As the play-in tournament approaches, it's essential for the Timberwolves to move on from the incident and focus on making amends.

Gobert's apology is a positive start, and it shows that he recognizes the seriousness of his actions. It's essential to address conflicts in a professional manner and to learn from mistakes.

Ultimately, Gobert's actions were regrettable, and he must take responsibility for them. It's never easy to admit fault, but it's a crucial step towards making things right.

Hopefully, both teams can learn from this incident and focus on playing the game in a positive and professional manner.
