Pau Gasol and Spain dashed France's hopes of capturing EuroBasket gold on Thursday, rolling to an 80-75 overtime victory and setting up a final against the victor of Friday's match between Serbia and Lithuania.

His night got off to a nice enough start as he drained a three-pointer 17 seconds after checking in, but he committed three personal fouls, including two within seven seconds of each other on the same second-quarter possession.
