Pau Gasol called up for Spain’s Olympic team

Madrid, Jun 19 (EFE).- Pau Gasol is to return to Spain’s national basketball team for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, according to the squad list published Saturday.

The older of the Gasol brothers returned to action with Liga Endesa winners Barcelona two months ago after a two-year absence through injury.

He has not played for Spain since the Eurobasket competition of 2017, when the country claimed bronze.

Tokyo will be his fourth Olympic Games after Beijing 2008, London 2012 and Rio 2016.

His brother Marc Gasol of the LA Lakers center and Ricky Rubio of the Minnesota Timberwolves were also on the team sheet.EFE
