Indiana Pacers Receive: G Derrick Rose, F Obi Toppin

Here, the Indiana Pacers are mainly interested in Obi Toppin. Rose is mostly a contract matcher.

At the same tie, the Indiana Pacers feel like an organization that’s interested in veteran mentorship. They’d probably rather be at least somewhat competitive.

Toppin’s inclusion could be the hang-up for either side here. The Knicks could deem him too valuable, and the Pacers may not deem him valuable enough. He’s flashed potential, but he’s far from a certain superstar.
