After 23 years of career on the floor, the Pau Gasol decided some time ago to end his huge and brilliant career.
In statements to the Spanish “AS”, the 41-year-old Spaniard first spoke about his future plans and for the prospect of taking over at some point administrative position in an NBA team.
“I have discussions with several NBA teams. I want to explore management roles that allow you more stability, less travel and more flexibility so that I do not leave other things that are important to me. “, said Pau Gasol initially.
He then referred to the reasons that led him to withdraw from active action:
“You try to ask people close to you if you can play a little more, but it’s up to you. It required a lot of commitment at this point in my career. At the end of the Olympics, it took me a month to see how I felt and to be very honest with myself.
Could I play a little more? Maybe. Under special circumstances, however, and being fully aware of my physical condition. But it was a good time to retire and I am very calm and very happy.
I have discussions with several NBA teams. “I want to explore management roles that allow you more stability, less travel and more flexibility so that I do not leave other things that are important to me.”
Pau Gasol has already a clear idea of what he wants to do now that his playing days are over ????>?https://t.co/SOejciKU1i
