Pacers could pursue wing depth

After losing their first-round pick during the NBA Draft lottery, the Indiana Pacers are expected to carefully evaluate their offseason options moving forward.

According to Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star, Indiana may prioritize adding another wing player with size as the front office looks to strengthen the roster.

Dopirak also examined several potential trade and free agent targets who could realistically fit the Pacers’ roster and financial situation this summer.

In addition, Indiana could explore moving back into the NBA Draft despite no longer holding a first-round selection, with a second-round trade-up reportedly viewed as a possible option.
