"Another NBA star was caught with his pants down. A camera quickly panned towards Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert while he was changing in the locker room following their win Wednesday over the Toronto Raptors. The mishap occurred when Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards was being interviewed at his locker. Another player walked by and chimed in, leading the camera person to try and capture him in the shot."
"The debate over when reporters should be allowed in the locker room has long been a contested topic. They're currently granted access immediately after games end, leaving players little time to shower and change before they're inundated with questions. NFL players are so tired of the practice, the players' association has pushed for post-game interviews to be held outside the locker room. They say they're protecting their privacy."

The incident occurred during an interview with Anthony Edwards when a passing teammate prompted the cameraperson to shift the shot, leaving Gobert visible in the background. Social media users criticized the cameraperson and the reporter who posted the clip, calling the footage inappropriate and demanding credential consequences. The episode renewed debate over postgame locker-room access for reporters, with players and unions arguing immediate access erodes athlete privacy and calling for interviews outside locker rooms.
