Career highlights and awards

Professional career

Pascolo began his professional career with his home town team of Snaidero Cucine Udine, in the Italian First Division, in the 2008–09 season. Pascolo initially struggled to become a regular rotation player in the team. That continued even after the club was relegated to the Italian Second Division, where Pascolo played with the team for the 2009–10 and 2010–11 seasons.

Pascolo then left Udine, and he then joined Aquila Basket Trento, which was playing in the Italian 3rd Division, for the 2011–12 season.[2] That proved to be a wise move for Pasdcolo, as the club moved up in the ranks of the Italian basketball league system. They achieved that by first gaining a promotion to the Italian 2nd Division, where they also won the Italian 2nd-tier national cup, in 2012–13; and by then gaining a promotion to the top-tier level Italian league, the LBA, after the 2013–14 season, in which Pascolo was named the league MVP of the Italian 2nd-tier level.[3] He was named to the European 2nd-tier level EuroCup's All-EuroCup First Team, for the 2015–16 season.

On June 17, 2016, Pascolo signed a multi-year deal with the Italian European top-tier level EuroLeague club Olimpia Milano.[4]

On July 1, 2018, Pascolo left Olimpia Milano after 2 seasons, where he won one Supercup, one Italian Cup and one Scudetto.[5]

On July 24, 2018, Pascolo officially announced the return to Aquila Basket Trento with a three-year deal.[6] On June 17, 2020, he extended his contract until 2023.[7]

International career

Pascolo was called up to the senior men's Italian national basketball team in 2014, and he played a marginal part in the team's EuroBasket 2015 qualification tournament, in which they qualified for the actual main tournament, the EuroBasket 2015.[8]

gollark: I believe the issue is that you can't determine which of the reals are actually computable with a non-infinite algorithm.
gollark: Obviously "computable" exists elsewhere.
gollark: "Computable numbers", I mean.
gollark: Is "computable" a thing you made up? Because it sounds as if it might suffer similar issues to in our proof, which uses "finitely describable" similarly.
gollark: No, it's right. The reals are countable. This is known.
