From this source, Marc Gasol says it is worth it to play for Spain in FIBA world cup sacrificing his summer to rest. Marc Gasol has just won his first NBA championship in his career. It is expected for Gasol to rest and make his body in shape for another NBA season as they are the defending champs. Instead, Gasol took the opportunity in sacrificing his summer to play for his country. He said that it is about the responsibility of having a commitment to the national team. Gasol wanted to be the role model for the next generation as he want the attitude to be passed down through generations. Now, Gasol is hoping to win the gold medal in FIBA World Cup against Argentina. If that happens, Gasol will be a player who has won an NBA championship and a gold medal in the same year.
