Utah Jazz star Rudy Gobert, who is competing for France in the 2019 FIBA World Cup, took issue with officials conducting a random drug screening as he recovered from a game.

Gobert put up nine points, nine rebounds and five blocks in France’s 78-74 win over Germany and was unhappy that an early morning drug test was affecting his recovery time.

“Got woke up this morning for a doping control( BLOOD and urine), the morning after a late game when i could sleep more. No respect for the player’s recovery time. Terrible way of doing things @FIBA ," he tweeted.

FIBA’s guidelines for drug testing state that officials can alert a player they will be conducting a test 12 hours before and four hours after a game for in-competition testing.

Gobert is part of the French team that is expected to be a contender for the title during the tournament. Gobert’s teammates include the Orlando Magic’s Evan Fournier, the New York Knicks’ Frank Ntilikina and the Charlotte Hornets’ Nicolas Batum.
