Grizzlies' Marc Gasol: Struggles Friday against Pacers

Gasol finished with 12 points (5-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists, and one block across 32 minutes during Friday's 102-92 loss to the Pacers.

Analysis:

Gasol has been struggling since being sat for rest purposes Feb 4. against the Timberwolves, hitting only 36.6 percent of his looks in the five games prior to Friday's performance. He wasn't able to right the ship Friday against his matchup, the young and athletic Myles Turner, who's known for his defensive abilities. Gasol's poor performance could also be attributed to needing to shake the rust off after the All-Star break. Despite his uncharacteristically inefficient stretch of games, fantasy owners shouldn't fret, as he still remains one of the most dynamic centers in the league capable of filling up every category of the stat sheet.
