Pau Gasol still is an effective power forward/center, so it’s not surprising that he’s drawing interest from several NBA teams as free agency ramps up.
“The market for Pau Gasol appears to be around $18-22 million/year,” ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne tweeted Sunday afternoon. “Raptors, Bulls, Blazers, Wolves, Spurs among the teams in discussions with him, per sources. Not clear yet if he’ll wait until Durant decides.”
ESPN’s Marc Stein followed with this tweet.
Gasol remains a quality rebounder, a decent defensive player and can provide much-needed scoring in a starting or bench role. He averaged 16.5 points, 11 rebounds and two blocks per game for the Chicago Bulls last season.
