Pacers Bring Back Tony Bradley on 10-Day Deal Before Hornets Game

Indiana prioritizes roster flexibility to cover frontcourt needs before the trade deadline.

Overview

  • The team announced Bradley’s return on a 10-day contract, and he will be available Thursday in Charlotte.
  • Indiana waived him earlier this week before his salary guarantee date, and he cleared waivers to become a free agent.
  • The maneuver saved about $1.55 million and puts roughly a $132,000 charge on the cap, keeping the Pacers about $5.7 million below the tax line.
  • The signing addresses center depth with Isaiah Jackson still out since December 22 due to a concussion, while Micah Potter has recently taken minutes.
  • Bradley has played 29 games this season, averaging 3.9 points and 2.6 rebounds in 10.7 minutes, has been using a splint for a right-thumb fracture, and remains eligible for a second 10-day deal.
