Gasol (foot) underwent surgery on Saturday, and the Grizzlies have confirmed that he'll miss the rest of the season.

Analysis:

While Gasol will miss the remainder of the season, he's expected to make a full recovery, though the team declined to offer a concrete return timetable. Spanish news outlet Marca reported nearly two weeks ago that Gasol is likely to miss four-to-six months, but it's unclear whether that timeline is in fact legitimate. Regardless, the Grizzlies will be without their top player for the remainder of the season, and at this point, Gasol's status for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio would appear to be in serious jeopardy. The Grizzlies have been starting JaMychal Green at center recently in Gasol's place, but the minutes load could be divvied up fairly evenly between Green, Brandan Wright, and Chris Andersen over the remainder of the campaign.
