On February 8th, Marc Gasol left with a foot injury against the Portland Trail Blazers after he was listed as questionable entering the game. Shortly thereafter, it was announced he had a fracture in his right foot. There was still some hope that he could return in time for the postseason, but that evaporated after undergoing surgery on February 20th.
