Pacers sign Ben Moore

[boomershadow]

I meant to post this yesterday. Not an altogether surprising move, but it's at least official now.

The Indiana Pacers announced Friday they have signed 6-8 forward Ben Moore to a two-way contract with their G League affiliate, the Fort Wayne Mad Ants.

Moore, who was in the Pacers' training camp, has been with the Mad Ants so far this season.

The former SMU player has played in 24 games for the Mad Ants, averaging 11 points per game on 52 percent shooting and averaging 6.6 rebounds.

I really like Moore. Hope he can be our 3&d guy that we need.Him and GRIII could make a nice tandem.

I posted this in the sticky NBA thread where Moore was discussed, but i will post it here as well in case anyone doesn't see that thread. Good write up on Moore from the draft - https://www.theringer.com/2017/6/21/16077430/2017-nba-draft-sleeper-southern-methodist-university-ben-moore-2d0480528286

Great. We need young blood on the bench.
