The Pacers announced July 9 two trades that bring seven new faces to the team. In a deal with Toronto, the Pacers acquired T.J. Ford, Rasho Nesterovic, Maceo Baston and Roy Hibbert (the 17th overall pick in June’s NBA draft) for Jermaine O’Neal and Nathan Jawai (the 41st pick in the draft). In a trade with Portland, the Pacers receive Jarrett Jack, Josh McRoberts and Brandon Rush (13th overall pick in the draft) in exchange for Ike Diogu and Jerryd Bayless (the 11th pick in the draft).
Veteran free agents Kareem Rush (Philadelphia) and Flip Murray (Atlanta) left the Pacers for other opportunities. Keep up with all of the team's offseason changes at our Player Movement HQ page.
Earl Calloway, a former Indiana University standout, played a starring role on the Pacers' team in the Orlando Summer League, averaging 14.2 points and 4.8 assists to earn second-team all-league honors.
