The Pacers have officially re-signed Kendall Brown, announcing in a press release that the 6’8″ swingman is back with the team on another two-way contract.
The 48th overall pick in the 2022 draft, Brown appeared in just six games and played 40 total minutes at the NBA level as a rookie. He saw more action with Indiana’s G League affiliate, the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, averaging 9.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 23.8 minutes per night in 10 regular season games.
Brown’s first professional season was marred by a stress injury in his right tibia. He missed six weeks in December and January due to the injury, which was dubbed a stress reaction. He subsequently underwent surgery near the end of February to address what had become a stress fracture.
Indiana issued a two-way qualifying offer to Brown in June, making him a restricted free agent. In all likelihood, he simply accepted that qualifying offer, which will ensure that he’s back with the Pacers on a one-year two-way deal.
The Pacers have now filled all three of their two-way slots, as Brown joins Isaiah Wong and Oscar Tshiebwe. The team also has 15 players on standard guaranteed contracts, so its roster for training camp may be just about set.
KENDALL signs with Indiana Pacers !!
So far, no word on whether or not the other family members:
Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Kylie,
will also be joining the Pacers…..
Don’t forget about Rob.
