Gasol injured the fourth metacarpal on his left hand when he collided with teammate Kyle Anderson during warm-ups before San Antonio’s win over the Denver Nuggets (19/1), but Popovich said he’s expecting the center to return to the lineup by the end of the All-Star break.
“They tell me that maybe at the beginning of All-Star break, somewhere around there, maybe he can play a game,” Popovich said before Thursday’s 102-86 win over the Philadelphia 76ers. “And if not, when we return, he should be able to. So, I’m guessing that probably after break, he’ll be ready to go.”
