According to Ronald Tillery of The Commercial Appeal, Memphis Grizzlies’ center, Marc Gasol, has been cleared to play after recovering from a broken right foot.
The 7-footer suffered the injury in February and subsequently missed playing for his native Spain in the Rio Olympics. However, Gasol recently returned to Memphis for strength and conditioning. Gasol is also playing pickup games, according to sources with knowledge of his progress. The Griz took a cautious approach to Gasol’s rehabilitation and are upbeat about his return to form on the basketball court, according to the sources.
Gasol is said to be a full participant with the Grizzlies after being inactive for several months, and the team plans to continue to proceed with caution.
