Is Scoot Henderson so good that it makes sense for the Indiana Pacers to draft another guard?



Scoot Henderson is one of the best prospects in the 2023 NBA Draft. But he’s also a guard. Would he make sense for the Indiana Pacers? Host Tony East is joined by Rafael Barlowe from NBA Big Board to break down Henderson’s strengths, weaknesses, and fit with the Pacers + Tyrese Haliburton.

  1. I know BPA is usually the right thing to do. But I just really dislike the idea of Scoot, I don’t think it will work out. This is just too bad of a fit for the foundation the pacers have laid out. We saw what kind of fit Tyrese was with this kind of player with De’Aaron. Our 3 best young players, and 4 of our 5 best players, are already guards. I think this is a situation where BPA is not the right choice, should it come down to it.

  2. Why not discuss top prospects for potential 7, 26, 29,etc picks? There is so much talent and so many layers to such discussions. Isntead, we are going with 'What if Pacers got lucky w/ a 1-4 pick, derp. Lets talk about Wembanyama/Scott/Miller for the 345353457th time'.

  3. Yes. Yes he is

    He is potentially better than Mathurin (and even Hali)

    If Pacers end up with #2, they should absolutely take him

    If Hali can coexist with Mathurin, then he can coexist with Henderson

    Passing on Henderson because he's not a good fit is how you end up with Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan

  4. i think if we get 2 we should trade down for miller or just draft him its a better fit for nearly the same upside plus i think hes further along defensively which would really help

  5. I think the Pacers should take Scoot if given the chance. After all it is a guardiocentric universe here in Indiana
