On today's episode, James Boyd joins Alex Golden and Mike Facci to discuss Benn Mathurin's play this season, why he was pulled from the starting 5 and whether it was the right decision, Indiana staying pat at the trade deadline and what it might mean for this offseason, Myles Turner's fit with this team and how an early playoff exit could potentially impact if he returns in free agency, Tyrese Haliburton's wonky season and how handling the pressures of being a franchise guy for a playoff contender can be challenging.

After 30 minutes of Pacers talk, James then discusses the Indiana Fever's offseason, how special this group can be this season with Caitlin Clark in year 2, the addition of so many talented players like, DeWanna Bonner, Natasha Howard, Sophie Cunningham and Brianna Turner, then hiring Stephanie White to be the franchise's new head coach. James also highlights the main young core from last season of Clark, Mitchell, Boston and Hull returning and how their experience last year can help catapult them into a more competitive team next season.
