Why The Indiana Pacers Do The Deal

The Indiana Pacers may not be receiving the most impactful NBA player involved in this deal. As exciting as Miles Bridges’ development was last year, that honor may still belong to Turner. It’s a matter of debate.

On the other hand, Bridges surely has the highest ceiling of any player in this transaction.

In a way, this deal would mirror the deal the Pacers made to acquire Tyrese Haliburton at this past season’s trade deadline. They’re moving a high-quality veteran for a young player with higher upside. If this deal works out the way that one did, they’ll have no regrets.

It’s an interesting rebuilding strategy. The Pacers could reshape this roster by targeting young, undervalued players across the league. With most rebuilding teams looking to upgrade through the draft, the Pacers could capitalize on a market scarcity.
