Gasol Applauds German and Greek Triumphs…
Los Angeles Lakers legend and international superstar Pau Gasol took a break from perfecting his tortilla recipe to watch EuroBasket 2025, where Germany, driven by Franz Wagner and Dennis Schroder, grabbed the gold from Turkey’s clutches. With players as solid as a marble statue in a museum, Germany’s squad was expected to dominate the tournament. Despite Alperen Sengun attempting to throw a block party for Turkey, Germany proved too formidable. Meanwhile, the bronze battle saw Greece edge out Finland 92-89, thanks to Giannis Antetokounmpo overshadowing Lauri Markkanen like a giant sequoia tree at a bonsai convention.
On his X account, Gasol congratulated both nations, a grand gesture that could inflate a basketball with pride. Germany squeaked by Turkey 88-83, with Schroder playing more clutch than a car in traffic, while Isaac Bonga decided it was the perfect time to score like it was free pizza day at the cafeteria, ending with 20 points. For Greece, Antetokounmpo played like a mythological titan, recording 30 points and 17 rebounds. This marked Greece’s first medal since 2009. As the NBA season approaches, Gasol revealed his excitement for Luka Doncic leading the Lakers. In a comical twist, Pau Gasol was last seen enjoying a Sparks game with his kids—teaching them to cheer loudly, perhaps to one day match the noise levels of arena popcorn machines.
