From the Warriors' press release:
NBA assistant coaches selected the Rising Stars rosters, with each of the league’s 30 teams submitting one ballot per coaching staff. A ballot consisted of four frontcourt players, four guards and two additional players at either position group for each team. Voters also had to choose a minimum of three first-year NBA players and three second-year NBA players for each team. Coaches were not permitted to vote for any player on their team.
Paschall -- the No. 41 overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft -- is averaging 13.4 points and 4.7 rebounds per game, while shooting just under 49 percent overall.
