(00:00-25:21) – Query & Company opens a Thursday with Jake Query and producer Eddie Garrison discussing the throat punch from Alyssa Thomas on Caitlin Clark last night and the loss in general for the Indiana Fever. Jake also opines on the Indiana Pacers trading into the second round last night to select Purdue’s Braden Smith.
(25:21-41:59) – After the Indiana Pacers traded with the Chicago Bulls to select Braden Smith, Jake had a thought that a lot of people haven’t considered. Would he want to be drafted by his hometown NBA team? Will there be added pressure on Smith and the Pacers if it doesn’t work out?
(41:59-50:51) – Jake Query concludes the first hour of the show by playing, and reacting, to what Indiana Fever Head Coach Stephanie White said last night after the game about the way Caitlin Clark is officiated.
(50:51-1:18:57) – Tony East from Locked On Pacers and Circle City Spin makes his weekly visit on Query & Company to give his perspective on the events that took place last night at Gainbridge Fieldhouse and the Indiana Pacers drafting Braden Smith. Plus, Tony weighs in on the trade from earlier in the morning between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Charlotte Hornets.
(1:18:57-1:30:52) – The United States Men’s National Team plays its final group stage game tonight in the FIFA World Cup. Jake needs Eddie’s help with some questions about how meaningless the game is tonight for the USMNT.
(1:30:52-1:42:12) – Hour number two of Query & Company concludes with Jake and Eddie further discussing Caitlin Clark and the way that the veteran players in the WNBA viewed her entering the league and how that opinion hasn’t changed.
(1:42:12-2:06:51) – The final hour of Query & Company starts out with Jake and Eddie continuing some Michael Jackson banter with him passing away 17 years ago today. They get back into the two big topics of the day. First, Jake points out how Stephanie White went to bat for Caitlin Clark last night, but nobody is really crediting her for that. Secondly, where does Braden Smith fit in within the Pacers this season?
(2:06:51-2:20:21) – Sean Deveney from Heavy.com makes his debut appearance on Query & Company to give his perspective on the Indiana Pacers heading into next season. Should they be viewed as a contender in the Eastern Conference? What kind of future does he see for Braden Smith in the NBA? Plus, he gives his overall thoughts on the NBA Draft by crediting the Milwaukee Bucks for drafting two players with a lot of good traits with room to develop.
(2:20:21-2:27:44) – The show closes out with JMV joining Jake Query to preview his show!
