For Gasol, there is one very intriguing option in the Oklahoma City Thunder, and it is being reported that the two sides will meet.
Not only will Gasol be meeting with the Thunder, but he will be sitting down with the Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors and likely the Los Angeles Lakers.
News of Gasol’s visits were passed along by the Los Angeles Times.
At this point, it seems very unlikely that Gasol will be returning to the Lakers, especially with a handful of intriguing options like the Thunder, Bulls and Warriors.
If Gasol wants to win now, his best option is to bolt the Lakers in favor of one of the more likely playoff teams.
In Oklahoma City, Gasol would team up with Serge Ibaka in the front court, which has to be something the Thunder would very much like to see.
