The COVID-19 pandemic hinders Pau's recovery from the scaphoid injury. Still, despite the restrictions and limitations, he persists in his efforts to return to the basketball court while continuing to work on other personal projects. On the other hand, the postponement of the Tokyo Olympics gives him more time to recover but also means that he will arrive at the Olympics at the age of 41.

During his recovery process, Pau receives several adverse medical reports about the evolution of his injury. Even so, he continues to pursue his goal of returning to the courts. He must join a competitive team to get in shape for his fifth Olympic Games.
