The Pacers are 0–3 coming out of the All-Star break, including two rough road losses to the Wizards, and suddenly the tank promoters are feeling very validated. Indiana now sits firmly in the 2nd slot of the inverse standings — so is this a skid… or a strategy?
We kick off our first episode in a new series we are calling “Sunday State of the Pacers” breaking down:
What’s actually gone wrong in the three-game slide
Whether the tank narrative is gaining real momentum
Injury updates on TJ, Aaron, Obi, & Zu
Pascal Siakam’s return from personal reasons
And why we’re OK with “entertaining losses”
GOAT of the Week: Jarace “Karate” Walker
16 PTS | 12 REB | 6 AST on 31 minutes a night — is this the leap we’ve been waiting for?
Career high Sunday and shooting 58% from deep (13/7 splits) — real rotation piece going forward?
We preview the week ahead and what we will be watching for as the Pacers round out the home stand against Philly, Charlotte, and Memphis this week! We cover it all here on the inaugural Sunday State of the Pacers.
