Can't move Knight

Hi I'm new to chess and maybe not too familiar with the rules, but for some reason I can't move my knight in this position but can move all my other pieces. I'm white in this situation and just put the black King in check with my rook.

You can't put yourself in check. There's a black rook on b8 and a white king on b1.

It should be g8. The white knight is pinned.

Becuase you cant put yourself into check

theres a rook that your knight is in the way of
