Pacers' Andrew Nembhard: Nets three-year extension
Nembhard agreed Wednesday with the Pacers on a three-year, $59 million contract extension, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
After the Pacers selected him with the first pick in the second round of the 2022 NBA Draft, Nembhard signed a three-year, $6.4 million contract that included a $2.19 million team option for 2025-26. According to Wojnarowski, the Pacers will decline that team option as part of the extension, which will go into effect beginning in 2025-26 and keeps him on the books through his age-27 campaign in 2027-28. Nembhard was solid enough in a supporting role during the 2023-24 regular season with averages of 9.2 points, 4.1 assists, 2.1 rebounds and 0.9 three-pointers in 25.0 minutes while shooting 49.8 percent from the field over 68 appearances (47 starts), but it was his performance in the playoffs that likely has the Pacers even more excited about his prospects moving forward. He averaged 14.9 points, 5.5 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 32.6 minutes over his 17 playoff contests and became the fourth player in NBA history to shoot at least 55 percent from the floor and at least 45 percent from three-point range in a single postseason, per ESPN Stats & Information. The new deal locks him in as Tyrese Haliburton's running mate in the backcourt for at least the next four years.

Pacers' Tristen Newton: Scores 17 points in SL
Newton logged 17 points (3-9 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 9-10 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals across 27 minutes of Saturday's 100-93 loss to the Cavaliers in Summer League.
Newton took on a larger offensive role due to Johnny Furphy, Ben Sheppard and Jarace Walker sitting out. While he struggled from long range, Newton had no troubles getting to the basket and drawing fouls, attempting a game-high 10 free throws. A second round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Newton isn't expected to see regular action with the Pacers as a rookie.

Wiseman agreed on a two-year deal with the Pacers on Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
The Pistons let Wiseman walk in free agency, and the 2020 No. 2 overall pick will join the Pacers to back up Myles Turner.

Pacers' Obi Toppin: Set to remain in Indy
Toppin agreed Sunday with the Pacers on a four-year, $60 million contract, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
After coming over in a trade from the Knicks last summer, Toppin proved to be a valuable contributor for Indiana as the club's top reserve big man. He appeared in all 82 games and averaged 10.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 21.1 minutes per contest. Indiana will bring back frontcourt starters Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner in 2024-25, so Toppin's role is unlikely to change dramatically despite receiving more of a long-term financial commitment.
