while also posting a picture to Instagram of his rehab process for his ruptured Achilles.

He also posted a picture of the day’s catch, which was rather unimpressive.
Pau Gasol made it to Game 3 of the Spurs-Grizzlies series on Saturday in support of his brother, Marc Gasol.

He also gave an update on his recovery from surgery on both knees. The surgery was to help with the tendinitis in his knees that sidelined him a handful of games this season
The checkup has gone well. I still have to be on crutches to complete the 3 weeks and make sure I get an optimal recovery.

And what would a social media roundup be without the one and only Metta World Peace. He expressed his love for people over money late Sunday night in a series of tweets
I LOVE WHEN AWESOME PEOPLE COME IN MY LIFE.
— Metta (@MettaWorld37) May 27, 2013
MONEY CAN DO FOR YOU WHAT PEOPLE CAN.
I WOULD NOT TRADE THE IN LOVE FRO MONEY.
MONEY CAN NOT HURT YOU , PEOPLE CAN
— Metta (@MettaWorld37) May 27, 2013
MONEY CAN NOT LOVE YOU , PEOPLE CAN
MONEY CAN NOT BRING FUN MEMORIES
BUT GREAT TIMES CAN
LOVE LIFE
