When Royce came around, I think his friendship with Don was one of the main reasons he was given a better chance than some of the other fringe guys at that time. The connection and support of Donovan was kind of a springboard for Royce to develop into the player he is today. I'm not giving Don all the credit by any means because Royce worked his butt off, but the foundation with Don helped.
If Paschall has that same confidence put in him, he might become the stretch PF/C we need in our rotation. When a player is supported and is happy, good things can happen.
