Nance Targets Pacers for Bounce-Back | Indiana Pacers News

The Pacers just pulled off a savvy move by signing Larry Nance Jr., a defensive dynamo who targeted them himself and is hungry for a bounce-back season. GM Chad Buchanan praised his versatility, basketball IQ, and locker room fit, while making it clear the backup center job is up for grabs—Nance, Jay Huff, and even Obi Toppin are all in the mix. With limited free agency options, Nance’s veteran presence and hustle make him a key piece, but he’ll have to earn every minute. Former backup Micah Potter was waived to make room, heading to Portland. The Pacers are building depth, flexibility, and grit—and Nance’s motivation could be the spark they need.
