Clippers Got Keaton Wagler Instead of Picks | Indiana Pacers News

The Clippers thought they were getting a sweet haul in the Ivica Zubac trade—draft picks, mostly—but ended up with just one player: Keaton Wagler. What they didn’t count on? The Pacers’ prized pick was already spoken for, tied to a prior deal. Now, looking back, it’s clear LA got a fringe All-Star center and a future draft asset that’s basically worthless. Meanwhile, the Pacers cashed in big time, even if some of their luck came from LA’s own missteps. Had the Pacers kept that lottery pick, they’d have drafted a top prospect—and the Clippers would’ve been left with a mess of late firsts, swaps, and dwindling assets. Honestly? They probably deserved worse. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
