Jarace Walker

Don’t really keep up with NBA but I see Pacers are in, will Walker get any playing time? Just deciding if it’s worth watching

@banderacoogfan

No, hes only gotten in at end of game. During blowouts

They have a (8) man rotation, and Jarace aint in it. But, maybe next season

Siakam, Turner, Haliburton, Nembhard, Toppin, Nesmith, McConell, & Sheppard

Jarace made $6 million this yr

The most guys in college are making w/NIL is maybe 2M

Supposedly. There is certainly no clear indication anyone is getting 2 million

Jarace made 45% from 3 this year, averaging 23 pts per game and he’s on the roster of an active NBA semifinals team. I thinks he’s progressing just fine

Would you rather play NBA/G league :basketball: for $7M/year or college :basketball: for less than $1M/year?

That’s an easy call for most folks and would be seen as progressing quite nicely by most people I know.

Sorry I should have been more specific, he played more in the NBA this year than G league:

he shot 35% from 3 Freshman year at UH
43% percent the next year in the G League and NBA

If someone as a problem calling that great progression, they probably have some expectation problems. And if they think he would have progressed more staying at UH, I think that is highly debatable and suspect.

Walker happens to play on a team that has a head coach that is well known for not playing rookies no matter what… I actually think his G-league play and also the sliver of time he has rec’d on NBA court actually shows he deserves more playing time but Rick C is not going that direction.

His $27 million contract would say otherwise.

Hard to argue the matter at $7,500,000/point, or $818,000/minute played.

Is this a great country or what!
