Grizzlies’ Marc Gasol talks about possibly being traded to the Spurs for Pau

The two biggest names on the trading block right now in the NBA are Anthony Davis of the New Orleans Pelicans and Memphis Grizzlies center, Marc Gasol. One or both of these big-name players could be on the move before the NBA trade deadline on Feb. 7 with Gasol potentially dealt to the San Antonio Spurs in exchange for a very familiar face.

Veteran Pau Gasol could be headed back to the team where it all started for the future Hall of Famer. This is only speculation from Marc’s point of view, but he admits it would be a move that would be kind of funny if it went down, via Geoff Calkins of Daily Memphian.

“I know, that’s pretty crazy, this whole ride there has been a Gasol at the Media Day at least,” Gasol said. “That’s pretty impressive. My son is only 2. … But maybe I’ll get traded to San Antonio and Pau comes back, who knows? That would be kind of funny. There’s a part of me that would like that. He still has a place here, the same place, my parents live in it. My parents have been here the whole ride.”

The 34-year-old Gasol can still contribute to a contender and the Spurs might be an intriguing landing spot for the veteran center. San Antonio may not be the powerhouse they once were, but the team might take a step closer to competing this season with the addition of a player of Gasol’s caliber.

However, this is purely speculation from the big man who doesn’t seem to have any knowledge of his future with the Grizzlies or potential future in San Antonio.
