Daily News — Pau Gasol was able to shoot and do some on-court drills before the game on Friday, but Jackson said he wasn’t optimistic about Gasol (ankle) playing in either of the Lakers’ upcoming games against Golden State on Sunday in Los Angeles or Monday in Oakland.
“I don’t anticipate he’ll play in the Golden State games. I’d like him to. I think that would be a good opponent for him … but that might be impossible for us to even remotely have that as a possibility,” Jackson said. “But I think in the next week there’s a chance he could come back.”
Jackson said he saw Andrew Bynum running on the treadmill when he came into the office Friday morning and that “he looked great” but that “we’re still watching his progress.”
