Eric Paschall, the 6-foot-6 “big man” for the Utah Jazz, has been only a sporadic part of Quin Snyder’s rotation. But he says he still stays mentally ready for when his number is called. 'I just keep my head on a swivel,' Paschall said.

“I feel like it’s a mental thing. I feel like a lot of people, if they were in my position, would just put their head down or complain about it. But there’s no reason [to do that] for me. You get to wake up every day and your job is to play basketball. You can’t be too pissed about it,” Paschall said. “So I come in, get my work in, and mentally stay ready — just know that stuff can’t affect you when you get on the court, and you can’t hold those emotions, like if you’re pissed.

Coach Quin Snyder said a player’s ability to not only come to terms with such variance in playing time, but to then actually flourish in the minutes that are available, is a rare commodity. Of course, a segment of Jazz fans might counter that Snyder perhaps doesn’t fully understand how valuable Paschall really is. They see a guy who brings physicality, effort, and energy — characteristics the Jazz have not had an abundance of during this recent downswing.Still, there’s something to be said for a guy who remains constantly engaged, no matter the circumstances.

The coach recognizes that Paschall’s position as a guy on the outside of the rotation looking in “requires a selflessness, it requires a mental toughness.”
