Toronto Raptors centre Marc Gasol was far from his best this season, and he knows it.
The three-time All-Star started the season slowly, posted career lows in rebounding and scoring, and was sidelined twice by a lingering hamstring injury that cost him nearly two months. Gasol was still effective as a team player, but the prideful veteran knew he needed to be better.
“It was a frustrating season for me personally because I could never get a rhythm and to help the team the way I should be helping the team,” Gasol told reporters on Wednesday after practice in the NBA’s Disney bubble.
