Grizzlies' Marc Gasol (foot) fills up the box score in loss to Thunder

Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol (foot) went 8-of-16 from the field, racking up 23 points, 5 rebounds 5 assists, 4 blocks, 2 steals and 3 3-pointers as the Grizzlies lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder 103-100 on Wednesday.

What It Means:

Memphis giving Gasol 33 minutes on the second half of a back-to-back right after he missed five games with a foot injury is a good sign that he is pretty close to 100 percent healthy, and he shouldn't be limited at all come playoff time.

Gasol has averaged a career-high 19.8 points to go with 6.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.3 block and 1.4 3-pointers in 34.5 minutes per game this year. He ranks 40th in the NBA and second among Grizzlies players with a 5.3 nERD.
