Making the Case: Indiana Pacers
The Indiana Pacers finally showed a plan of action by sending away some big names at the trade deadline. After yet another disappointing season, it is unlikely that it will end here.
Moving Brogdon would open up even more space for the Pacers moving forward. It is clear that they are in a rebuilding phase and have been for a couple years now.
This is not a deal as much about the return but about a team looking to retool. Kemba Walker has one year left on his contract while Alec Burks is also a short-term commitment.
When looking at the financial situation for Indiana, they would be able to get Brogdon off the books while acquiring two players that will be salary cap dumps.
