Young Guns Making Noise: Peter, Furphy & Walker Fuel Pacers Preseason Win

The Pacers returned home for their first preseason game — and the young guns stole the show. Brad is flying solo as he breaks down a standout night from rookie two-way guard Taelon Peter, who showed off his outside shooting, athleticism, and defensive instincts in a 116–101 win over the defending champs. Johnny Furphy added another poster to his preseason highlight reel before being sidelined with an ankle injury, while Jarace Walker impressed in the 2nd half, attacking OKC’s zone defense with sharp passing and decisive playmaking. Brad discusses how these early performances could shape the Pacers rotation heading into the season — and why this group of young pieces already looks promising early in the 2025/2026 campaign.
