Marc Gasol
You would think that Marc Gasol came from a laundromat with how washed he ha
s looked this season. Now the Los Angeles Lakers may be trying to cut their
losses on him.
Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer reported Tuesday that some rival executives
speculate the Lakers could buy out the three-time All-Star big man.
Gasol, 36, is having a disappointing year with 4.8 points and 3.9 rebounds a
game as the Lakers’ starting center. The team just signed Andre Drummond,
who will presumably supplant Gasol in the starting lineup. Montrezl Harrell
can also play as a small ball 5, as can Anthony Davis whenever he returns fr
om injury. That would appear to leave Gasol as the odd man out in the frontc
ourt rotation.
A buyout might not be too difficult, as Gasol is making just $2.6 million th
is season and $2.7 million next season. He also has an NBA championship ring
already, meaning that he might not be too opposed to leaving the defending
champion Lakers for better playing time elsewhere. We do know of one rival t
eam who seems to be looking for more size.

現在，洛杉磯湖人隊可能正試圖減少對Gasol的損失。
B/R的傑克·費舍爾週二報導說，一些競爭對手的高層們推測認為湖人隊可能會買斷這位
三屆全明星大個子。
現年36歲的Gasol作為湖人隊的首發中鋒，這賽季的表現令人失望，平均得分為4.8分
平均籃板為3.9個。 在球隊剛剛簽下了Andre Drummond，後者可能會在首發陣容中取代
Gasol。 Montrezl Harrell也可以做為小球5號位打球，Anthony Davis傷愈歸來後也可
以打。 這讓Gasol的位置很尷尬。
買斷可能並不難，因為Gasol本賽季僅賺260萬美元，下賽季僅賺270萬美元。 他已經擁
有一個NBA冠軍戒指，這意味著他可能不會太反對離開衛冕冠軍湖人隊在其他地方獲得更
好的比賽時間。 我們確實知道有一支湖人的競爭對手的隊似乎正在尋找中鋒。
