Marc Gasol‘s tenure of 10.5 seasons as a member of the Memphis Grizzlies came to a close on Thursday afternoon. Though he has found a new home with the Toronto Raptors, the city of Memphis is where his heart remains.
Prior to entering the NBA, Marc lived in Memphis while his older brother — Pau Gasol — thrived with the Grizzlies. It is a wonderful story to reminisce now that no player by the name of Gasol remains on the team’s roster. It truly is an end of an era — or rather two eras, considering “Grit-‘N’-Grind” and the transition from Gasol brothers.
