Why This Trade Would Benefit The Indiana Pacers

This is a reasonable trade for the Indiana Pacers because it allows the team to build up for their future more so than they otherwise would have been able to. The Pacers aren’t the best team in the NBA this season, but adding a slew of talent and draft picks could change that narrative moving forward.

The Pacers haven’t had the season they were hoping for, but that could actually be a blessing in disguise. The Pacers are in a position to trade away one of their breakout stars this season to land some great talent in some other areas.

Indiana has seen the value that Myles Turner brings defensively and would be able to fully unleash his intriguing potential on the other end of the floor. Meanwhile, they’d have PJ Washington and Devonte’ Graham to add to their core.
