Here's a little tidbit on Caris. It's practically a homecoming of sorts for him. The dude was drafted in 2016 by the Pacers and immediately traded on draft night to Brooklyn with a 2nd for Thaddeus Young.

He's found the perfect landing spot in Indiana as expectations will be nonexistent in a small market with a team that usually operates on stealth. He's got the perfect teammates in Brogdon and Sabonis who are willing passers and make others around them better not to mention Nick Nurse disciple Nate Bjorkgren has done a fine job in making the Pacers play at a faster tempo plus he did well in Toronto with working on developing the younger guys. Caris just has to be more efficient on his shot selection and attacking the rim and perhaps the Pacers will unlock some new tools for Caris to add to his skill set.

Really like his contract too as it was time for the Pacers to let go of Oladipo since he was giving signs of walking away plus they got a 2nd in the process so that never hurts.
