Marc Gasol’s career in the NBA, which started in 2008 after leaving theAkasvayu Girona, where he had exploded as a player, seems to be nearing its end after it has transpired that the Lakers will get rid of him by sending him to the Grizzlies and that, there, he will negotiate the termination of the contract to be free. According to journalist Adrian Wojnarowski, the operation aims to save the Lakers 10 million, and once they run out of equipment, the goal of the president of Bàsquet Girona is to return home with his family.

This is where different scenarios open up about the immediate future of the Catalan pivot. The door to the NBA is closed after a particularly difficult season in Los Angeles, Gasol you have to decide if you want to keep playing or if you plan to retire. And in the first option, there are not so many realistic scenarios either. There has been talk of the option of going to the Barça, but the club, ruined, will be able to offer very little. Joining some other ACB club would seem utopian, as well as starting an adventure in some powerful Euroleague club outside of Spain. And Girona? This is an option that should not be ruled out. In fact, Marc Gasol has said actively and passively that he wants to finish his career in Fontajau and now, with the team at the LEB Or, he could consider it to help make the leap from the project to the long-awaited ACB.
