Pau Gasol couldn’t be on the court to help the Spanish national selection, though he is certainly proud of what they achieved in China.

The news that Pau Gasol would not participate in the 2019 FIBA World Cup hit hard. A significant absence for the Spanish team that also makes the gold medal taste sweeter.

“Of course I would have liked to be there, contribute and be there playing, winning that medal”, Pau Gasol commented when asked if he felt any healthy envy for his former national team partners. “The circumstances did not allow me to, so all I can do is support, encourage and rejoice for a moment as beautiful as this”.

The bond that this team has is very special, the desire for competitiveness, the desire to achieve special things, the humility of work as a team, nobody is above anyone … We are having exceptional continuity, we must give a lot of credit to the coaching staff, Sergio and his team. They have done an impressive job”, added Gasol.

And, of course, if Pau feels proud of someone, in particular, that is his brother. “Marc’s year is a dream [He also got his first NBA title]. You only have to enjoy these moments that do not happen normally. He has earned them and I can only be super proud as his brother”.
