A major court ruling just gave college athletes who thought their eligibility was up a second chance — including Braden Smith, whose name is already trending. Players who started in 2022-23 and completed four seasons under old NCAA rules can now play a fifth year, even if they were told they were done. But Smith’s camp says he’s not returning to college — he’s all-in on the pros. The Indiana Pacers, eyeing his playmaking upside (comparable to Andrew Nembhard), are circling him despite a shaky Summer League showing. With cap space and room on their two-way roster, they’re likely to sign him to a minimum deal and send him to their G-League team, the Noblesville Boom, for development.
