Grizzlies' Marc Gasol (ankle) will make preseason debut Monday

Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol (ankle) will make his preseason debut Monday against the Atlanta Hawks.

What It Means:

Gasol will sit out Memphis' first two preseason games with an ankle injury he suffered during the Eurobasket Tournament. He and Mike Conley will play alongside one another for the first time in the preseason on Monday against the Hawks, which should indicate Gasol is fully healed from the injury.

Our models project Gasol to average 19.4 points, 8.9 rebounds, 4.1 assists, and 1.6 blocks over 35.4 minutes per game in the 2017-18 season.
