Pau Gasol close to returning
Pau Gasol is close to returning to the San Antonio Spurs, and there is a chance it could be before All-Star Break according to the San Antonio Express-News.
“They tell me that maybe if at the beginning of All-Star break, maybe somewhere around there he can play game, or when we return he should be able to go,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “I am guessing probably after the break he should be ready to go.”
Gasol is in playing shape and once he is medically cleared then he should be back in the lineup with the team. Regardless of what day, what we do know is that it is happening this month and he needs to be owned in all formats.
Gasol is available in roughly 23% of fantasy leagues and should be a huge waiver grab this week and heading into all-star break. His own percentage prior to his injury was 99%.
