mes102 Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 (edited) 13 hours ago, Zippy87 said: I'm not sure what show you're referring to. When I think "Northeast Ohio Media" I think of TV/print/online. ABJ, PD, WKYC, WEWS, and others have all been giving Freeman fantastic exposure throughout his draft process. That's fair. With my work schedule, I primarily listen to podcasts on my 90 mile round trip drive for work every day. Occasionally, I'll listen to morning radio on my way home from work, but normally I'm putting a podcast on (like Diary of a CEO is one I frequently put on), or if I find a 20 minute or so video that I can listen to sports wise, I may put it on if I'm stopping halfway to or from work for gas or something. So my bad if I missed those then. I should clarify the media I've listened to, where there is nothing ultimate (the show is called ultimate cleveland sports show) about it (although because some people got on them yesterday about no mention of the local kid, including me so they'll probably do a segment on it today). I've listened to three different days of draft talk from them, and not one mention of Freeman, but 90% of the talk was Bronny.

mes102 Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 (edited) Indiana Pacers Summer League Schedule July 12 vs Brooklyn, 8:00pm = NBA TV / ESPN+ July 14 vs Minnesota, 5:30pm = NBA TV / ESPN+ July 16 vs Phoenix, 4:00pm = ESPNU / ESPN+ July 18 vs Denver, 4:30pm = ESPN2 / ESPN+ I believe the start times are based off Eastern Time Zone. If someone can confirm that, much appreciated. Edited June 29 by mes102 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Enrique's not guaranteed a spot on Indy's roster, correct? He's been drafted and will now play on their summer league team to see if he makes the final regular-season 12-man roster, right? If he doesn't will he be relegated to the G-League? I'm not sure how this process works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how this process works. You are correct. At least that's what happened with Emoni Bates last season. He played in the Summer League and spent most of the regular season with the Charge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how this process works. I’d expect he’d be a 2-way player to begin the season and split time between the G League and the Pacers. Pacers are pretty good, so it’ll be pretty shocking if he logs any appreciable minutes this upcoming season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would make him an Indiana Mad Ant. They are also based in Indianapolis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkwgriswold Posted July 9 Report Share Posted July 9 I see the Pacers signed James Wiseman. Talk about two players with different paths. He and Enrique are both 23 and will be looking to provide quality depth, but Wiseman was the second pick in the 2020 draft, has been handed everything and will entering his 4th NBA season while Enrique worked his way to where he is and is a rookie at 23. Here's hoping the Pacers reward hard work over 4 year old press clippings. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like he won't be eligible to play in the summer league games, but will be able to practice with the team. Probably as an extra body for the scout team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
