clutch sticks to the floor... help!

2003 g35 coupe 76k miles

temp is in the mid 30's

all of a sudden my clutch just started sticking to the floor, i can pull it back up but theres not a chance of driving it. I checked quickly to see my brake fluid level and its fine. my guess is either air in the lines or a bad slave cylinder, or possibly a bad throwout bearing? let me know what you guys think from experience. i havent checked to see if there are any leaks my car is currently getting towed

3 things typically. Fluid, Slave and then Master in that order. Last things are the Clutch line, pivot ball or clutch/flywheel.

The slave should run you typically $30-$50. Run some fresh dot 4 through the lines and bleed it accordingly. Bleeding is a pain in the as* on this car and have patience young padawan.
