The Pacers have finally figured out what draft position they will have, and unfortunately, that means they will not be able to draft the generational prospect Victor Wembanyama. And while many fans were disappointed in the loss, it turns out, luck may have been on our side after all.
While San Antonio was the biggest winner of the night moving up multiple spots to be able to draft Victor Wembanyama at number one overall, and Detroit was clearly the night’s loser dropping four spots, the Pacers had one thing really break their way.
Namely, the Rockets didn’t end up above the Spurs in the draft order.
