| The Lakers agreed to trade Marc Gasol — along with a 2024 second-round pick and cash — to the Grizzlies for draft rights to Wang Zhelin, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The Scoop:Wojnarowski reports that Gasol and the Grizzlies will work towards a waiver and release to allow him to remain in Spain with his family. The 36-year-old center's NBA career appears to be coming to an end, but he may look to continue playing basketball in Spain. In 13 seasons, Gasol accumulated two first team All-NBA nominations, three All-Star appearances and one Defensive Player of the Year award. He also won an NBA Championship with the Raptors during the 2018-19 campaign. Sep 10 11:44 ET - | ||||||||
| Marc Gasol: Will play for Lakers this season Gasol confirmed Tuesday that he will return to the Lakers and play a 13th NBA season, Brian Windhorst of ESPN reports. The Scoop: Gasol remains under contract through 2021-22, but there was some thought that he could retire or continue his career back in his home country of Spain. However, after Spain fell to Team USA in Tokyo on Tuesday, Gasol told reporters that he will, in fact, come back to Los Angeles for one more season. Gasol will likely split minutes at center with Dwight Howard whenever Anthony Davis is resting or playing power forward. Aug 3 7:54 ET |
| Marc Gasol: Expected to start in Game 6 Gasol is expected to start in Game 6 against the Suns on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. The Scoop: After he had come off the bench in every game in this series, the Lakers will move the veteran center into the starting lineup in a do-or-die situation in favor of Andre Drummond. In four games to start the series, Gasol has averaged 6.5 points on 66.7 percent shooting, 4.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.8 triples and 1.0 steal per game. Gasol could see an uptick in minutes from the 17.5 minutes per game he's averaged so far in the series. Jun 4 2:32 ET |
| Marc Gasol: Impressive off bench Gasol managed 12 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, three blocks and a steal across 23 minutes off the bench in Sunday's loss to the Suns. The Scoop: Gasol has played at least 20 minutes in two of his three games since returning to the rotation, but he looked impressive in this one -- he posted his first double-digit scoring effort since May 3 and also outplayed Andre Drummond in several categories, including minutes, points and blocks. It remains to be seen what his role will be going forward, but Gasol has been making a case for more minutes, and Sunday's game was an excellent example of that. May 31 4:33 ET |
| Marc Gasol: Plays 17 minutes off bench Gasol had three points (1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in Thursday's Game 3 win over the Suns. The Scoop: Gasol picked up a DNP-CD in Game 1, but he's been a key piece in the rotation for the Lakers' last two victories. Gasol drained his only field-goal attempt Thursday, and while he finished as a minus-11 in 17 minutes, his passing and basketball IQ are a welcomed sight for a Lakers team that's incredibly dependent on LeBron James for halfcourt playmaking.
