Utah's Rudy Gobert thinks Miami's Dion Waiters targeted his knee on purpose after Waiters went after a loose ball Friday, reports the Desert News. 

Gobert was knocked over in the process and left the game. But he returned in the fourth with a right-knee contusion.

Gobert told the Desert News that he thought it was a dirty play, and that it looked worse on video. 

He also did some not so subtle subtweeting. 

​

Waiters scored 21 points in the Heat's 84-74 win over the Jazz.
