Marc Gasol says 'thank you forever' to Grizzlies fans as his No. 33 jersey ascends to the rafters.
The Memphis Grizzlies retired Marc Gasol’s No. 33 jersey on Saturday night at FedExForum.
Gasol becomes the second player in franchise history to have his jersey number retired, joining Zach Randolph, whose No. 50 was retired on December 11, 2021.
Randolph was in attendance for the ceremony, along with Mike Conley and Tony Allen. It was the first time the Grizzlies’ “Core Four” had been together since their run of seven straight playoff appearances ended in 2017.
Arguably the most decorated Grizzlies player in franchise history, Gasol’s accolades include three All-Star games and a Defensive Player of the Year award while anchoring Memphis from 2008-19.
Gasol remains the Grizzlies’ all-time leader in minutes played (25,917), games started (762), field goals made (4,341), free throws made (2,701), rebounds (5,952) and blocks (1,135) and ranks second in franchise history in games played (769), points (11,684) and assists (2,639).
