Haliburton Diagnosed with Shingles, Kobe Brown's Career Night + More on the Zubac Trade with Derek Schultz

Alex Golden is joined by Derek Schultz for an episode that has a little bit of everything.

We start with the surprising news that Tyrese Haliburton is dealing with shingles — what this means for his recovery timeline and what fans should realistically expect moving forward.

Then we discuss the Pacers dropping three straight games out of the All-Star break. While the losses sting, they’ve also boosted Indiana’s draft lottery positioning. Is losing games better for the team in the long run, or could this decision hurt them later?

Despite the loss, Kobe Brown poured in a career-high scoring night. What are we seeing from him lately, and is there more there than initially expected?

We also revisit the Ivica Zubac trade — what Indiana gave up, why they made the move, and how we’re feeling about it now with more context.

And to close it out… we fire up Tankathon and spin the wheel twice for the final two games to see what fate has in store.
