SAS Power Forward/Center: 7’0, 250 lbs; 17th year, Spain 

 NBA Role: highly skilled, offensive-minded 4/5 • Salty DOG

A 2-time NBA champ, 6-time All-Star & former Rookie of the Year, Pau Gasol’s had an illustrious career; an amazing passer, midrange shooter and skilled big on the block, running offense through Pau remains an option – can find teammates over the top (or flashing cutters), destroy you w/ a barrage of jumpers; interesting case study: won’t box out but grabs double-digit boards almost every night – screams after the slightest bit of contact but calling him soft is overplayed and inaccurate; struggles with one-on-one D – Coach Pop has the unenviable task of finding ways for Pau & LMA to coexist defensively*; can Pau capture title #3 San Antonio?

*on offense, hi-low action is featured
