Episode Notes
The Indiana Pacers did not get the lottery luck they were hoping for.
With the NBA Draft Lottery now official, Indiana has officially lost its 2026 first-round pick to the Clippers, as the selection fell outside the Top 4 protections included in the Ivica Zubac trade.
Alex Golden and Mike Facci went live immediately following the lottery to react to the results and discuss:
- The emotions of losing such a valuable pick
- How the lottery unfolded for Indiana
- Whether the risk of the Zubac trade was still worth it in hindsight
- What this means for the Pacers moving forward
The guys also discuss how differently the trade will now be viewed by fans and whether Indiana’s championship window just became even more important.
A raw, honest and emotional reaction to one of the biggest lottery nights in recent Pacers history.
