Warriors rookie Eric Paschall names his all-time favorite NBA players

Instead of picking his five all-time greatest, Eric Paschall named off his personal favorite NBA players.

With no basketball on the schedule, players are turning to social media to entertain themselves. A popular time-filler online has been interactive Q&A sessions with the players and fans.

“Who are your top-five players of all-time?” is a common question circulating for many players on social media. Giannis Antetokounmpo, Trae Young and Juan Toscano-Anderson were all asked similar questions.

Next up is Eric Paschall. In a Q&A on the Warriors Twitter account, Golden State’s rookie was asked to name his top-five NBA players of all-time. According to Paschall, narrowing down his top-five would be too hard. Instead, the Villanova product pivoted to sharing his personal favorite players.

The rookie named off a group of Hall of Famers, mixed with three current players — including one of his teammates.

Via @Warriors on Twitter:

I’m not going to name my top-five of all-time because that’s too hard. I’ll pick my favorite players of all-time. Tracy McGrady is definitely up there in terms of one of my favorites. LeBron [James], Kobe [Bryant], [Michael] Jordan, you can go with Shaq [O’Neil], you can go with Steph [Curry], you can go with Kevin Durant. There are too many players to just name five because there are players that are great for different reasons. I’m just going to go with my favorites with that.

After averaging 14 points on 49.7 % shooting from the field in his first NBA season, there’s a chance Paschall is already starting to catch the eye of some of his favorite players in the NBA.

Once the game action returns to the court, Golden State’s second-round pick will have 17 games to finish out an impressive rookie campaign.
