Pau Gasol Thinks Lakers Return Could Be Special, Wants To Play Alongside His Brother

Pau Gasol could reunite with the Los Angeles Lakers for one last season. Gasol played alongside late NBA legend Kobe Bryant, the 40-year-old has helped the LA outfit win two championships. While he went on to play for teams like the Chicago Bulls and San Antonio Spurs later, he could come back to LA, hoping to end his NBA career with the team. 

Though uncertainty clouds his basketball career, Gasol hopes to play in the NBA once more. While talking to ESPN this week, Gasol discussed being back with the Los Angeles Lakers, which is where history is for him, along with his brother Marc Gasol. “But I’m not in a position now to be very demanding. I don’t have 10 offers on the table,” Gasol added. 

While on the Spectrum Sports Net’s Road Trippin‘ podcast, LeBron James replied with a “we’ll see” when asked about Gasol’s apparent return to the team.  With Marc on the team, Gasol’s interest to play with the Lakers has only intensified. Gasol also spoke about playing five Olympics if possible, which would be “extraordinary”.
