Marc Gasol has exercised his player option and opted into a $26.5 Million 1 year deal to stay with the champion Toronto Raptors. Toronto acquired Gasol right before last years trade deadline. Raptors sent Jonas Valanciunas, C.J. Miles, Delon Wright, and a future 2nd pick in exchange for Marc Gasol. Gasol’s presence was imminent from being a rim protector at times to stretch the floor with his shooting ability and great vision with his passes.
Gasol opting into his contract lead people to speculate that Kawhi has a good chance of returning. If your Gasol are you really turning down a 26.5 million contract?
