The Indiana Pacers are on the lookout to plug a veteran and a solid piece at the wing, and there could be three logical players to pick at their side.
Per ESPN’s Jonathan Givony, the likes of Tobias Harris, De’Andre Hunter, and Dorian Finney-Smith are some of the potential trade targets for Indiana.
The Pacers have a visible hole in their wing slate. Though Buddy Hield, Aaron Nesmith, and Jordan Nwora have circulated around on the position last season, the club still further needs a lengthy presence.
Harris is set to enter the final year of his $180 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers and has been drawing a lot of trade noises since then. As he has that scoring reputation while holding that rich experience of being a contender, he could be vital for the Pacers in terms of their offense and growth as a promising team.
Meanwhile, De’Andre Hunter fits well into the club’s timeline as he is now 25 years of age and has more room to develop. With a bulky six-foot-eight frame, he might be a good partner with Myles Turner in the Pacers frontline.
And lastly, Finney-Smith is a well-rounded defensive specialist who can cover Indiana’s defensive versatility gaps and shoot threes for floor spacing purposes. With Brooklyn rumored looking to trim down their deep wing lineup, the Pacers may consider acquiring him.
