Pau Gasol (foot) returned from a 19-game absence in Friday's home loss to the Wizards, scoring four points on 2-of-10 shooting with eight rebounds and no steals or blocks in 20 minutes.
It's not the big return owners would have liked heading into next week, but it's pretty understandable that he struggled tonight. The Lakers play four games next week, and that might be the tipping point for owners wondering if they should plug him into lineups.
