The Indiana Pacers are in the midst of what could be considered the first rebuild in franchise history under the ownership led by Herb Simon. It is something they have been hesitant about doing in the past, but they accepted the reality of where the roster was during the 2021-22 NBA season and knew a change had to be made.
The rebuild started ahead of the trade deadline when they completed deals involving Domantas Sabonis and Caris LeVert. Sabonis was sent to the Sacramento Kings and LeVert headed to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
There are still some veterans on the roster that could be on the move this offseason in Myles Turner, Buddy Hield, and Malcolm Brogdon. Of the three, it sounds as if Brogdon is the likeliest to be on the move.
