The Memphis Grizzlies have completely retooled their roster at the NBA Trade Deadline as they made three separate trades in the final hour or two just before the deadline. The big deal though was the one that sent Marc Gasol to the Toronto Raptors.
It’s a sad day for the fans. He has been on this team for over a decade so there are a large number of fans who don’t know what Grizzlies basketball looks like without him.
It’s an even sadder day for him though. Gasol loved this team more than he could express and while he certainly will be excited to play for a contender he didn’t necessarily want to leave Memphis.
