    • Why they have each player ranked where they do
    • What separates the prospects from one another

    To close out Segment 1, the guys fire up Tankathon for one more lottery spin to see how fate could shake out for the Pacers.

    Then in Segment 2, James Boyd of 107.5 The Fan and The Athletic joins the show for a deep conversation about Indiana’s future.

    Topics include:

    • What the Pacers do if they lose their draft pick
    • James’ personal ranking of the Top 4 prospects
    • How much Indiana can realistically rely on Tyrese Haliburton after multiple injury-plagued seasons
    • Whether including the protected pick in the trade was the right move
