Indiana Pacers to trade for Thomas Bryant, former IU player
Dec 13, 2024
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indiana Pacers have traded a future second-round draft pick to the Miami Heat for center Thomas Bryant, a Indiana University alumni, sources have told ESPN.
Bryant will become trade-eligible on Sunday.
The trade comes as the Pacers have struggled with the loss of Isaiah Jackson in November and James Wisemen in October. Both tore their Achilles tendons.
Bryant, 27, played college basketball for the Indiana Hoosiers from 2015 to 2017. Bryant was a member of the Denver Nuggets team that won the 2023 NBA Finals.
The Philadelphia 76ers (7-15) will host the Pacers (10-15) starting at 7 p.m. Friday.
