Fans of the Golden State Warriors hate the Stephen Curry injury and how abruptly the Dubs' fortunes turned. They lament how quickly their team fell from grace. However, a new hope is emerging in the form of Eric Paschall.

The Golden State Warriors won their second game of the season, beating the Portland Trail Blazers thanks to the Villanova product. Eric Paschall put on a dominant display, finishing with 36 points and 13 rebounds. No rookie has gotten such numbers since the first year in which Stephen Curry played.

The Warriors have always been known for finding outstanding talent deep into the draft, and it looks like they found another one based on the way Paschall has been performing. He's showcased versatility in a field for a team that was severely lacking it due to the injuries they've had to key players.

Curry himself is loving the way the rookie is performing, taking to social media to express his delight for Paschall.

The Warriors picked well with their 42nd overall selection. Eric Paschall knows what it takes to win a championship after being one of the solid rocks the Villanova Wildcats leaned on during their 2017-18 championship run. He will be able to provide scoring, rebounding, and defense to a depleted Warriors squad.

The fans hope that their rookie developed his game enough during his collegiate career. And by the looks of things, it seems like he'll be able to contribute without a hitch.
