Breaking News: The Indiana Pacers are doubling down on center Tony Bradley, extending his stay with a second 10-day contract! This decision comes after a tough loss to the Detroit Pistons, where the Pacers fell with a score of 121-78 on Saturday night.
Bradley's journey with the Pacers has been quite a ride. He initially joined the team on a 10-day contract last March. Impressing the team, he earned a non-guaranteed contract and played through the season, even making a significant impact in the Eastern Conference Finals and the NBA Finals. The team then picked up his option in the offseason, and he even made the roster at the end of training camp, despite the team already having four centers.
But here's where it gets controversial... The Pacers waived Bradley just before his non-guaranteed deal was set to become fully guaranteed on January 10th. Instead, they opted to guarantee fellow center Micah Potter's contract. However, they've now brought Bradley back on a 10-day deal, and now a second one.
In Saturday's game, Bradley showed his potential, scoring 12 points with an impressive 5 of 6 shooting performance. Throughout his limited minutes, he's been shooting an impressive 57.8% from the floor, averaging 3.8 points and 2.8 rebounds per game off the bench.
