Timberwolves' Eric Paschall: Signs deal with Minnesota
Rotowire
Paschall agreed to a one-year, two-way deal with the Timberwolves on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
After averaging career lows across the board during his first and only season with Jazz, Paschall is aiming for a fresh start in Minnesota. The Timberwolves mark the third team that the Villanova product has played for in just his fourth season. Paschall is slated to compete against Kyle Anderson, Naz Reid and Jaden McDaniels for playing time. The 25-year-old remains a weak fantasy option entering the 2022-23 season, especially since being on a two-way deal means he'll spend plenty of time in the G League.

Rotowire
Paschall will start Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Mavs radio play-by-play man Chuck Cooperstein reports.
Rudy Gobert (leg) was a late scratch, and Hassan Whiteside (foot) is also sidelined, so the Jazz are left shorthanded at center. Paschall will get the nod as the nominal five man, joining Juancho Hernangomez, Royce O'Neale, Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley in the starting five.

Jazz's Eric Paschall: Solid production in limited action
Rotowire
Paschall ended Friday's 107-101 loss to the Hornets with 11 points (4-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal over 10 minutes.
Paschall reverted to his usual reserve role Friday following a one-game stint with the starters. While his playing time may have been reduced, his production remained the same, as the third-year forward scored in double figures for a third straight appearance. As long as Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) and Danuel House (knee), remain sidelined, Paschall figures to have increased opportunities during the stretch run.

Jazz's Eric Paschall: Scores 11 in spot start
Rotowire
Paschall closed Wednesday's 125-97 loss to the Celtics with 11 points (4-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and two assists in 25 minutes.
Paschall didn't play in any of Utah's last two games, but he delivered 17 points across 18 minutes off the bench in his previous appearance. Despite the fact that he scored in double digits, the fact that he needed 12 shots to score 11 points can't be overlooked, and his inconsistent role certainly limits his upside.

Jazz's Eric Paschall: Logs 14 points from bench
Rotowire
Paschall supplied 14 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and four rebounds in 25 minutes during Monday's 115-109 loss to Phoenix.
Paschall's play from the bench has come in handy during January, and with multiple starters out to begin the week, Paschall's numbers should see a boost. Overall, however, the Villanova product had more value with the Warriors in his first season, and he's faced an uphill battle since then for playing time.
