About this episode

Brad and Ryan evaluate the performance of the Indiana Pacers' guards for the 2025–2026 season in the first part of their report card series.

It’s Part 1 of our Pacers season-ending report card series, and we’re starting in the backcourt. Brad and Ryan break down the 2025–2026 season for Indiana’s guards, handing out grades for every contributor—from key pieces like Andrew Nembhard and T.J. McConnell to the deeper rotation and two-way guys who saw time throughout the year. Who exceeded expectations? Who left more to be desired? And which guards proved they’re part of the long-term core? Full evaluations, honest grades, and plenty of debate to kick off the series.
