Mitchell-Paschall exchange jerseys at the Chase Center
Utah Jazz's Donovan Mitchell and GSW's Eric Paschall both grew up next to each other and were neighbours from a very young age. Coming from the same social background, life was hard for the two budding athletes but they both managed to make it to the big stage. After playing each other in the NBA for the very first time, Mitchell and Paschall stayed back on the court to exchange jerseys with one another as a sign of the mutual respect and admiration they have from one another. Sportsmanship at it's best!
