Indiana Pacers: 3 frontcourt trade targets the team could still pursue

Despite the 2021 NBA Free Agency still in its early seams, the Indiana Pacers are virtually set roster-wise. With 15 players already on board for next season, expecting a new addition via the free agent market is basically out of the woods.

However, this does not mean that Indiana has exhausted all its options to improve the team. They may be safely taken out of the free agency picture, but the trade market should still pique the Pacers’ interest, especially with all the player movement that has defined the early junctures of the offseason.
