Pau Gasol says he's joining Bulls
Pau Gasol will join the Chicago Bulls, who are finalizing a deal with the 7-foot Spaniard. It was unclear if he was signing for a mid-level exception or if this is part of a sign-and-trade deal with the Lakers.
Gasol announced that he's leaving for Chicago via Twitter.
"It hasn't been easy," Gasol tweeted. "After meditating it a lot I've chosen to play with the Chicago Bulls. Looking forward to this new chapter of my career."
