Bucks rule Pau Gasol out for rest of playoffs after foot surgery

Milwaukee Bucks center Pau Gasol has been ruled out for the rest of the postseason after undergoing surgery Thursday to repair a navicular stress fracture in his left foot.

In late March, Gasol was reportedly only expected to miss a month with the injury.

The Bucks signed Gasol on March 3 after the 38-year-old agreed on a buyout with the San Antonio Spurs. The 18-year veteran was expected to shore up Milwaukee's frontcourt depth but only played a combined 30 minutes over three appearances.

Gasol is expected to make a full recovery in time for training camp.
