It seems the Toronto Raptors might lose a valuable and beloved team member today, because Marc Gasol is reportedly thinking about leaving the NBA ato end his basketball career playing in Spain.

According to reports from Spanish podcast host Sergi Carmonetti, Gasol, who is originally from Spain, is planning to sign a contract with FC Barcelona and return to his home country for the remainder of his sports career.

Reports swirling that Marc Gasol is going home...he'll play in Spain next season.

What a run he had in the @nba w/ his incredible years w/ the @memgrizz & the experience/savvy/skill/professionalism he brought to the @Raptors - especially in their 2019 championship run - as well. pic.twitter.com/xm6uuW7LXs

Gasol has been with the Raptors since 2019 and has made fans undeniably proud over the past two seasons.

Raptors fans are meanwhile taking to social media to share their fondest memories of Gasol's time with the team, and there's no question that he'll be missed by many in Toronto.

marc gasol really spent a summer helping save refugees stranded at sea near european borders, came to canada and won a championship, won a championship the sumer after for his country...then played a post season in a bubble. if true, he deserves the rest of his career in spain.

Some fans are reminiscing about the enthusiasm with which he celebrated the team's championship win last year, with a few even sharing videos of him chugging a bottle of champagne during the parade.

"There's no NBA championship in Toronto without Marc Gasol. Period," wrote sports reporter Chris Walder on Twitter Wednesday afternoon. 

"His interior defense. His sheer presence in the paint. His passing around the basket and ability to stretch the floor when necessary. Forever a Raptor. Forever a champion."
