Who needs to step up for the Indiana Pacers with Tyrese Haliburton out? + Positions have struggled
Q: How should the Pacers handle the backup center position?
Simba favors giving Jalen Slawson more minutes for his defense and energy. He and Tony East see Jay Huff as a useful option for his offense, and East considers starting Huff with Slawson as the backup while the team is shorthanded.
Who needs to step up for the Indiana Pacers with Tyrese Haliburton out? + Positions have struggled
Q: Who and what needs to be better for the Pacers to survive the next couple of weeks without Tyrese Haliburton?
Simba says the bench needs to create more offense, while the team as a whole must pass, move and execute its system. He sees Andrew Nembhard as already doing a strong job and wants Quentin Jackson to try to create more, with defensive minutes from the available players also important.
Exclusive interviews: Rienk Mast, Keba Keita, GM Chris Taylor, more at Noblesville Boom media day
Q: What made the Pacers organization and the Boom the right choice for you?
Keba Keita says he was drawn to the Pacers' unselfish, fast style and believed his game could fit their system. He also valued the organization's feedback during the G League Combine.
