Spurs' Pau Gasol (hand) will 'try to play' Wednesday
According to Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News, San Antonio Spurs center Pau Gasol will "try to to play" Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets.
What It Means:
Gasol is officially questionable, but it sounds like he'll be giving it a go despite a bruised right hand. A few key Spurs are out -- including Kawhi Leonard (quad) -- so that could by why he's trying to push through this injury. Either way, even if Gasol plays, he could be limited. That would mean more looks for LaMarcus Aldridge and more minutes for guys like Davis Bertans and Joffrey Lauvergne.
If he suits up, our models like Gasol to produce 23.6 FanDuel points while costing $6,000 on Wednesday's slate of games.
