With seemingly everyone in the NBA possessing free time these days, Golden State Warriors rookie Eric Paschall jumped on Instagram Live with Richard Jefferson on Tuesday afternoon.
Jefferson took over the SportsCenter Instagram page and talked to the Warriors rookie for a period of time. Since retiring from the NBA, Jefferson has picked up quite a few media jobs and has emerged as an entertaining figure given his outgoing personality.
He dug deep into his bag of tricks on Tuesday and tried to set Paschall up into badmouthing Warriors head coach Steve Kerr but the rookie wasn’t falling for it, which made for a hilarious exchange between the two.
He play too much 😂😂😂 https://t.co/6U9z15YB6B

Though Paschall is in just his first season in the NBA, he wasn’t going to take the bait from Jefferson regarding his head coach. Instead, Paschall “passed the test” as Jefferson said.
Paschall emerged as one of the top rookies this season, averaging 14 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 60 games played. He ranks fourth in scoring among all first-year players.
