Huskies Target PG Depth, Offer 2026 Standout Bam Paschal
Danny Sprinkle and the Washington Huskies target 2026 recruiting with a scholarship offer to Zamir "Bam" Paschal, Oregon's No. 1 ranked point guard.
Zamir “Bam” Paschal, a class of 2026 point guard from Central Catholic (Portland, Ore.) appears to have taken a visit to Washington on Thursday, with an offer from Danny Sprinkle’s staff following the trip, according to his Instagram.
The 6-foot-1 Paschal is one of Oregon’s top 2026 prospects. The three-star recruit is the No. 1-ranked player in Oregon according to Rivals Industry Ranking and the No. 40 point guard nationally.
Paschal is coming off a senior season that ended with a deep state-tournament run for top-seeded Central Catholic. In the 6A state semifinal win against Jesuit, he scored 19 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter — going 7-for-7 from the floor in the period, including 2-of-2 from three.
Paschal also holds offers from Portland and Portland State. In early April, Washington State, Oregon State, Sacramento State, and UNLV were showing interest.
Washington’s recruitment of Paschal is coming late in the 2026 recruiting cycle, as most 2026 commitments are in. His recruitment for the Huskies makes sense. The team needs point guard depth behind USF transfer Ryan Beasley, the Huskies’ presumptive starting point guard. The team has three remaining roster spots and is thin at point guard.
If Paschal were to commit to the Huskies, he’d be the second player to sign with Washington from the 2026 class, following Lattimore Ford’s commitment in late April.
