Pacers already getting hammered with injuries. Caris LeVert and TJ Warren out indefinitely. Edmond Sumner out for the year.
That’s three key wing players (and a small ball PF in Warren) on the shelf to start the year. Feels like we’re never going to see the fully realized Pacers. – 9:36 AM

Caris LeVert says he’s in a good spot and focused on getting back his conditioning lost after having his kidney removed.
“I had a good offseason so I’m looking forward to the season.” – 11:46 AM
