Not quite, he seems to be a better free throw shooter than Capela.

This team is likely to sign another old, finished, 33+ year old PF.

Very similar games and same age. Capela has the big edge on size with his superior length, while Pascal has a little better shot at this point.

I loved Capela in the 2014 draft btw and wish we took him over Bruno, so this is not a knock on Pascal, but I don't think his ceiling is as high as Clint's. Still a great pick near the end of the first and I expect him to get spot minutes right away and make an impact with his hustle and length.

Paskal has shown he can shoot the ball, maybe not consistently yet but he can step out and shoot it. He was a a decent FT shooter in college too

He has shown more potential to develop a jump shot I'd agree, but neither can really shoot yet.

Taller, longer, way more productive offensive game than Acy.

But will likely fill that hustle, energy guy mold.

The more I watch of this kid the more I like him...this kid has INCREDIBLE energy.

Just from the vids I'm watching on youtube, saying he GETS AFTER IT is an understatement. Seems like he's a gritty, intimidating player that really is on attack at all times. I really think the kid makes teams feel his prescence out there n more I watch the more I think he's gonna be a HIGH IMPACT role player (in a good way). I'm really praying we can keep Biz around too but this kid is gonna give him competition for fan favorite, having both would really in grain a great energy on the team.

Please ship out T-Bargs to keep Biz home n let the Giants of Africa start beasting!!

This kid just better not be 32 and actually 22 lol

There is about a 0.5-1" difference in size.

Acy is to Pascal, what Ross is to Powell....absolutely nothing.
