Description
Indiana Pacers General Manager Chad Buchanan joins Setting The Pace for an in-depth conversation about the direction of the franchise and the decisions shaping its future.
We discuss:
- The trade deadline deal for Ivica Zubac and why Indiana felt it was the right move
- The reality of this team’s championship window
- What fans should realistically expect when Tyrese Haliburton returns
- The continued growth of Pascal Siakam — both on and off the floor
- Where Jarace Walker has made the biggest strides
- The improvements from Andrew Nembhard this season
- Indiana’s open roster spot and the evaluation of Quenton Jackson
And in one of the more candid parts of the interview, Chad reflects on how difficult it was to trade two players drafted and developed in-house, Bennedict Mathurin and Isaiah Jackson.
