## Resource

Alex Golden and Mike Facci are back to discuss what’s next in NBA free agency as the offseason enters its next stage and teams prepare to officially complete their moves on July 6. The guys start by diving into this year’s restricted free agent market and what it could tell us about the decisions Indiana may face next offseason with Jarace Walker and Ben Sheppard. How should the Pacers approach those upcoming decisions, and could what happens around the league this summer impact how Indiana handles its own young players? Alex and Facci then look at the best free agents still available, LeBron James’ wait-and-see approach to his future, and whether a potential return to Cleveland could have a domino effect that makes Thomas Bryant available for a Pacers reunion. To close out the show, the guys revisit the Trey Murphy III conversation. Did signing Kelly Oubre Jr. officially close the door on a Murphy trade, or could Indiana still have interest in making a bigger move? A loaded episode on free agency, roster construction and what could still be ahead for the Pacers this summer.
