Pacers looking to trade into NBA Draft in early second round, per report

The Indiana Pacers, who currently hold no picks in the 2026 NBA Draft, are reportedly attempting to trade into the early second round, targeting a pick somewhere in the 30s, according to Jake Fischer of The Stein Line. The move could help the team find late-round talent, as they have done previously with starting guard Andrew Nembhard. The trade could also serve as a vehicle to move the salary of forward Jarace Walker or guard Ben Sheppard.
