Gasol retires No. 16 jersey, hopes Bryant can be on the field
2023-03-08 15:29In the recent match against the Grizzlies, the Los Angeles Lakers hung up the No. 16 jersey of retired star Paul Gasol and held a retirement ceremony.
The Grizzlies are the team Gasol started in the NBA , and the Lakers are the peak period of Gasol's NBA career. That year, Gasol won two NBA championships with teammate Kobe Bryant.
Gasol's No. 16 jersey hung next to Bryant 's Nos. 8 and 24. Gasol expressed his thoughts on this: "Thanks to my family who have always supported me. Without my family and my teammates from the Lakers, everything would not exist today. Thank you to my teammates from the Lakers for allowing me to improve myself and become a better person , The retired jersey also has your credit, thank you."
Referring to the late Bryant, Gasol credited him with showing how to be a good player, not only showing leadership on the court but maintaining a good mentality every time he goes on the court. Gasol said: "He laid the foundation, it depends on whether you can keep up with this path, if you don't fit, you have to leave."
Gasol also mentioned that when he was traded from the Grizzlies to the Lakers , his mentality was "either a champion or a failure." Bryant once told him that one day his jersey, like other legends, would hang above the Lakers' court.
Now that Gasol has fulfilled this wish, when he thinks of this deceased comrade, Gasol said emotionally: "This is the whole world to me, and I very much hope that Bryant can come to the scene and enjoy this moment with me. "
