Los Angeles Lakers center Marc Gasol and former Lakers center Pau Gasol will join the Spain Men’s Basketball Team for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics this July and August. This continues a tradition for the two Gasol brothers, who regularly play for Spain during international competitions.
Marc will possibly be the only Laker to play in the Olympics after LeBron James and Anthony Davis declined to participate. It’s undetermined whether or not Dennis Schroder will join the German National Team. The Gasol brothers have led Spain to medals in each of the last three Olympics, winning the Bronze in 2016 and the Silver in 2012 and 2008.
