Rebounding as Jarace Walker's top priority could result in breakout season he needs (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jarace Walker's career hasn't gone entirely to plan. After being drafted eighth overall in 2023, the Houston product was expected to be a connective piece within the Indiana Pacers ecosystem, while Tyrese Halliburton would be the one running the offense, spending less usage than one might expect to organize everything. Walker was expected to be the similar brain for the defense. To be fair, it was a role he had shown he was capable of in college. However, that hasn't exactly worked out, and Walk
Larry Nance Jr.'s hamstring injury doesn't really matter, but it's a bad sign (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Larry Nance Jr. might just be the least consequential player on the Indiana Pacers roster. That seems mean, but it is no less true about a player who will only play if the season has gone terribly wrong and who was only signed to be a locker room presence for a team that may struggle this year. He has aged out of being a small ball five option as his athleticism has waned, and he has become increasingly injury-prone over the past few years. Now, early in training camp, Nance has a hamstring inju
Obi Toppin lauding James Johnson highlights his importance to the locker room (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"He won't hold his tongue for anyone," Obi Toppin said. "He knows what we need to be successful. Even if it's for a couple days, he's going to make sure his presence is known and make sure our team knows what it takes to get to that level." Anyone who has been following the Indiana Pacers for the past couple of years will be able to tell you exactly who Toppin is talking about, and exactly why it's so important that he's back in the fold. That is, of course, the infamous James Johnson, the MMA s
Kelly Oubre's media day comments show the team and the player were each other's priorities (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Indiana Pacers' off-season was a relatively quiet one. They did not make any major trades. They had most of their rotation in place. The primary deal they made to change the outlook of their team was completed during the trade deadline, swapping out Bennedict Mathurin, Isaiah Jackson, and a few first-round picks for Ivica Zubac. No, the primary edition was set to be Tyrese Haliburton coming back from his Achilles tendon tear, and the returned presence of the veterans all along the Pacers ros
Haliburton has quotes fans will love at media day, but he will have to back up his plan to hit the ground running (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If there were two things that fans wanted to hear from Indiana Pacers Media Day, they would have been: 1) Tyrese Haliburton's Achilles is good to go, and 2) that Tyrese Haliburton is ready to start the season after rehabbing his Achilles injury (yes, those are the same thing, that's the point). It seems blind to say that nothing else matters. But while giving credence to the fact that basketball is a team game, and there are any number of different things that could happen to lead to a successfu
