Pacers Will Reportedly Attempt to Trade Roy Hibbert Again

Center Roy Hibbert opted into the final year of his deal with the Indiana Pacers (at $15.5 million) Thursday, and after picking big man Myles Turner in the 2015 NBA Draft, the Pacers are expected to put Hibbert back on the trade block.

Pacers head coach Frank Vogel has already said that Hibbert’s role will be reduced next season, and team president Larry Bird hinted that young Turner will become the team’s starting center “in time.”
