Gasol total assists line at 1.5 seems really low. Even though he's only had 1 assist in each of the games in this series so far and isn't getting much run, his time should increase with Lee out. And he looks for assists it's not a coincidence, had 5, 2, 3, 4, 3, 1 in the HOU games although a lot easier matchup obv.
Idk if ya'll r familar with rotogrinders tools but courtIQ is pretty good for seeing the usage increases/decreases of teams when said player(s) are out.

W/Parker, Kawhi, Lee out, it has Gasol at a 26.1% usage rate, barely behind LMA (who hasn't even showed up in this series yet) for the top, and Gasol's usage increases 4.9% with these players out.
*In the 3 games Lee was completely out vs Jazz, Timberwolves, and Hornets Gasol had 13/12/3, 11/7/2, and 5/5/3 games (Pts/Reb/Ast). Gasol even is averaging 2.3 assists for the entire season.
