Ex-Indiana Pacers and Mad Ants wing Pedro Bradshaw signs in Australia
Pedro Bradshaw, who spent the last two-plus seasons with the Indiana Mad Ants in the G League, has signed overseas. The wing signed a training camp contract with the Indiana Pacers last summer.
Bradshaw, 25, originally joined the Indiana organization in 2022 when the Mad Ants grabbed him from the G League available player pool. He spent all of the 2022-23 campaign with the Pacers G League affiliate before signing an Exhibit 10 deal with the Pacers in 2023.
He was waived and returned to the Mad Ants once again for 2023-24. Altogether, he played in over 100 games for the G League club. He averaged 8.4 points per game in that span and shot over 40% from deep in each of the past two G League seasons. His movement and defense stood out.
After over two years in Indiana’s organization, Bradshaw is signing in Australia. Late in July, the Cairns Taipans announced that they have signed Bradshaw for his first overseas season. “In the G League he remained just as consistent, especially with his three-point shooting and rebounding,” Taipans Head Coach Adam Forde said of Bradshaw in a statement. “The plan for us is to greatly increase the volume of Pedro’s output. He’ll be one of our go-to guys. All he needs to do is continue on his trajectory and the rest will take care of itself.”
Bobi Klintman, the 37th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, played for the Cairns last season, and former Oklahoma City Thunder guard Rob Edwards will join Bradshaw on the team this season The club plays in the NBL — which is also the league former Indiana Mad Ants forward Mojave King signed in this year.
The Mad Ants will have to remake a big part of their roster this season.

New law allows alcohol at participating county fairs in Indiana
KOSCIUSKO COUNTY, Ind. (WSBT) — It’s fair season and a new law uncorks adult beverage sales!
The new Indiana law will go into effect July 1st, making it legal to sell alcohol at county fairs.
The Kosciusko County Fair is set to kick off in just a few weeks and Indiana is officially allowing alcohol to be sold.
The law is bringing back something that’s not necessarily new to this fair.
Here’s what you need to know
The new law will go into effect on July 1st. It officially allows county fairs to apply for fee-free permits to sell alcohol.
Officials with the Kosciusko County Fair say they are participating this year. They are implementing the same guidelines they used when they sold alcohol just at grandstand events.
The difference now is, you can walk around the grounds with your drink. But strict guidelines will be in place for purchasing a drink.
“Actually, we’ve never had any issues. Because we card everybody, so we take that seriously. We also got the ID guides so we can identify the different types of IDs,” said Sheal Dirck, Treasurer of Kosciusko County Fair.
The Kosciusko County Fair already have guidelines in place, so this was an easy transition for the fair.
They will be the only vendors selling alcohol, which will make it easier to control distribution.
The sales will also bring in more revenue.
“Hopefully it allows to keep our ticket prices where they are because right now, insurance, utilities and everything else is going sky high and it’s hard to make ends meet,” said Dirck.
However, some fairs cannot participate because of the July 1st start date, like the Pulaski County Fair, which is going on right now. Pulaski County officials said it is on the agenda for next year. Whereas other fairs are choosing to sit this year out.
“We wanted not spend some time to, to see what that really means for us. It was not a decision we wanted to rush into. But we are happy for the option of it,” said Shelly Steury, GM of Elkhart County 4H Fairgrounds.
Leaders at the St. Joseph County and Elkhart County Fairs said neither of them are selling alcohol.
The Kosciusko County Fair is the only fair that will sell alcohol in our area this year.
