Panathinaikos is hoping to bounce back from a disappointing 2021-22 season and they target forward Eric Paschall as reported by Eurohoops. The 2018 NCAA champion spent the past season with the Utah Jazz.
Paschall played for the Warriors and the Jazz during the last three seasons establishing a bench role with both teams. He made 62 appearances with the Jazz during the 2021-22 campaign and averaged 5.5 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.6 assists per contest.
Throughout his career, the dynamic forward averages 9.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists. He was selected with the 41st overall pick in the NBA draft by the Warriors after helping Villanova to an NCAA championship in 2018.
The Jazz had an option to extend a qualifying offer to the explosive forward this offseason, but Utah elected to go on a full-fledged rebuild trading away Rudy Gobert. They also expected to sent away fellow All-Star Donovan Mitchell.
An offensive speciallist, Paschall is a great scorer from in-between and he’s constantly is trying to attack despite his size at 6’6”. He only averaged 12.7 minutes per contest last season, but shot 37 percent from three in almost two attempts per game.
Panathinaikos has re-purposed its roster this offseason hoping to return to prominence. The Greens officially tabbed Paris Lee, Panagiotis Kalaitzakis, Marius Grigonis, Nate Wolters, Derrick Williams, Andrew Andrews, and Arturas Gudaitis.
