Siakam is better with a center that can shoot but he's become a much more consistent 3pt shooter since he was a raptor so it can probably work.

pacers taking a huge gamble lol but it can work out

I assume you’re just iffy on the 2026 pick

Its a few things

The gamble with the draft pick
The fit
The price


Im a big Zubac fan but the Pacers like to get up and down the court and the lack of a stretch element....with that being said he can give them some stuff offensively that they havent had before too

I almost feel like they could've just kept Turner if they were just going to turn around and give up assets for Zubac a year later.......I think they could've afforded to play thing out rest of the season, see where the draft pick lands since they were fortunate enough to get it back from the Pels anyway and then go from there

On the other hand seizing the opportunity to get talent in the door when you're team like Indiana and dont have the best history of getting free agents

I don't think zubac was the plan. I think they really just wanted to avoid paying Mathurin and did the best they could do to avoid him walking for nothing or potentially having to overpay.
 
I think the Clippers did a good job adapting on the fly and getting younger

If they had more time Im pretty sure they would've moved Kawhi but all of this stuff happened very fast

If they can keep him healthy rest of the year and get a solid return for him in the offseason that would be a massive win
