Indiana Pacers players Lance Stephenson and Myles Turner gave us a pair of highlights from the Caroline Symmes Memorial Celebrity Softball Challenge.

Myles Turner’s team picked up the win last Thursday the Indiana Pacers took part in the 10th annual Caroline Symmes Memorial Celebrity Softball Challenge.

But what does this mean for the Pacers?

Now, you may be asking yourself, “Ben, what does a softball game that raises money to help fight cancer have to do with the Indiana Pacers upcoming season unless someone got hurt?”

Well, if you are asking that questions and I didn’t just use it as a literary device, it’s clear you just aren’t thinking big enough. You probably believe the earth is “constitutionally round“, unlike me and Kyrie Irving — call us geological libertarians.

Time to go galaxy brain on some of highlights from last week and see what they tell us about the Pacers.

Lance Stephenson is adding a more cerebral part to his game this season. That’s what this highlight of Lance pulling off the old hidden ball trick tells us. Lance is also working on becoming a cerebral assassin when he playing any sport.

But I don’t think he completely gave up his old ways. There isn’t room for freelancing in softball like you can in basketball, but Lance showed us his determination, as well as his stubbornness when fielding an infield fly.

Lance will always be Lance, no matter what sport he is playing.
