Why The Indiana Pacers Do The Deal
OK, time to stop disregarding the pick. After all, it’s the main thing bringing the Pacers to the table here.
At the same time, they should be interested in these young players. Nwora may not have had a great 2021-22, but he’s a young, athletic wing who can shoot. He still has ample time to develop into a positive contributor.
Meanwhile, Beauchamp is promising as well. Of course, the Bucks would be moving him before he played an NBA game – we haven’t seen him in action yet. Still, he profiles as a strong wing defender if nothing else.
Still, the main draw here is the 2029 first-round pick. Granted, 2029 is a long way away. That’s perfect when the pick is coming from a contender.

The Bucks won’t be in the lottery any time soon, but they could be anywhere by 2029. By that time, even Antetokounmpo might be due for an upgrade.
