Indiana Pacers: What if the Pacers move on from Jeremy Lamb?
It’s hard to gauge Jeremy Lamb’s value because I’m not in the front office listening to them talk about him, but I can do my best to look at some trade targets for him. There is going to be a common theme with all the players I talk about, SF/PF combo wings that fit the exact mold of what the Pacers need off the bench.
A few players that fit those criteria:
- Al-Farouq Aminu
- Rudy Gay
- Harrison Barnes
- Otto Porter Jr
- Thad Young
- Moe Harkless
- Danuel House
Like I said I don’t know the value of Lamb around the league so many of these players may not even be in the realm of possibilities especially when you factor in salary. If I were to give a top-three of most realistic targets in my opinion I’d have to say it would be Aminu, Harkless, and House.
Two are on bad teams and the other doesn’t get minutes on a good playoff team. The one on the list that I personally would want the most is Thad Young for obvious reasons, great play mixed with him already playing here and the city having so much love for him.
Hopefully, the Pacers can get a player like the ones on the list or anyone on the list, they are in dire need of someone that can serve as a big wing because many of the Pacers’ losses can point back to the lack of that.
