  • Discussing Myles Future, Potential New Contract Numbers + Will Pacer go in Tax to Extend Myles?
    Aug 1 2024
    Alex and Facci are back with Pt. 2 of the mailbag and they answer all of your questions about Myles Turner. Discussing Myles' future in Indy with this being his final year on his contract. Joe Reagan @joe_bbjr69 I want Myles to remain a Pacer. With the cap pressure the Pacers will face though do you see the Pacers move on after next season? Woukd they stick with Jackson/Wiseman/maybe a $10-15 mil cheaper option rather than pay Myles $30 mil or so. Maybe it's required to pay Mathurin? Christopher Lloyd @ChristopheLloyd Great pod, guys! Recently y'all threw out out $25M/ per for Myles' next contract. If Hartenstein got $29M and Myles has similar numbers as the past two seasons (≥17p/7r/2b/37% from 3), I think a lot of teams want in & the bidding for his services STARTS at $35M. What say you? Chris Weech @chrisofprod Is there any world where we enter back in to the Myles Turner trade rumor season around February? What Intel would you have to know to pull the trigger on a mid season trade vs. letting him walk for nothing or over paying him? (Btw love Myles and want him to retire a Pacer) Pacer Faithful @jlh0215 Do you feel the Pacers are at a crossroads by the end of this year where they'll need to decide to either take a step backward or go into the tax to keep Myles? Or is there another way to keep improving? Aaron @Aaroncd18 When do you think the pacers will or can extend Myles and McConnell Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Devin - @basedevinO Do you think Wiseman will rebound and have a decent season this year or is he truly a draft bust? Travis - @PxcersFTW Who do you think gets backup center minutes? Jackson or Wiseman Samuel Culbertson @sjc2397 The ceiling for James Wiseman? Marc Goldsticker @hockeymsg What is your prediction for the center rotation in the 2025-26 season? CF @CFalcon31 Do we have the future starting SF on this current roster, or are they coming from elsewhere? If Turner re-signs the next off-season, that should lock in 4 starters.
