At the end of his contract with the Jazz, Eric Paschall is making a new start. The strong winger has signed up for a year with Wolves and he fills an already well-stocked racket a little more.
The Free Agency idling, we are satisfied with what we have. Little signature of the day hello, Minnesota continues its nice summer market. After Rudy Gobert’s XXL trade and the signings of Kyle Anderson, Bryn Forbes and Austin Rivers as free agents, Wolves have decided to gamble by offering Eric Paschall a one-year contract. The former Villanova, very prominent during his rookie season at the Warriors but more in difficulty for two years, will try to revive in the Great Lakes region. This is Adrian Wojnarowski fromESPN who swung the info first on the blue bird.

This signing may come as a bit of a surprise as Wolves’ racket is already full. Rudy Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns will of course take the starting spots but there are still people behind to blow them away. Naz Reid, Kyle Anderson, Taurean Prince, Nathan Knight even Josh Minnott in a small ball configuration, that’s a lot of people for so few minutes. We must therefore add Eric Paschall to this list and one wonders what role Donovan Mitchell’s super friend will have in the rotation. He will not play position 5 and the minutes in 4 behind KAT should be offered to Prince or Anderson in priority. Last season, Paschall was shooting 5.8 points in twelve minutes at 49% shooting and 37% from afar. Like Dane Moore of Bring Me The News recalls, Minnesota now has 16 players under contract at the time of this writing, which means that someone is going to have to be cut… The most likely scenario is that all these beautiful people will come to training camp and Chris Finch will then have to decide who to entrust with the fifteenth and last spot of the workforce. You will have to convince.
Barely a year following his arrival, Eric Paschall is already leaving Utah to join Minnesota. The strong winger will try to join Wolves’ ambitious project, but will he be able to find a place in Chris Finch’s rotation?
