Episode Details

Ryan Conwell, the explosive guard who led Indiana State to its best season in years, just got drafted by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the second round and was immediately sent to the Miami Heat. His college teammate Robbie Avila, the dominant big man who didn’t get drafted, is now signed to an Exhibit-10 deal with the Los Angeles Lakers — a chance to earn a roster spot or a two-way contract. Together, they formed a dynamic duo that averaged 16 and 17 points per game during Indiana State’s historic 32-7 campaign. Both are set to debut in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas on July 9, hoping to prove they belong at the highest level. Their journey mirrors that of other Indiana State stars like Jayson Kent and Tyreke Key — showing how hard work and talent can still crack open NBA doors, even when the path isn’t easy.
