As the NBA trade deadline approaches, the Indiana Pacers could be among the more active teams around the league with fielding calls. Whether they end up making actual moves or not remains to be seen.

LeVert started off the 2021-22 campaign slowly but has recently posted some more robust outings. Overall on the season, he’s averaging 20.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 4.9 assists but is shooting just 31.8% from beyond the arc.
