Indiana Pacers Agree To Sign Big Man Larry Nance Jr To A Contract
- On Wednesday, July 8, 2026, the Indiana Pacers signed forward/center Larry Nance Jr. to a one-year veteran minimum contract, bolstering the team's frontcourt depth ahead of the 2026-27 season.
- Hard-Capped at the first luxury tax apron just over $209 million, the Pacers utilized the veteran minimum to secure Nance while maintaining salary cap compliance and saving about $400,000 in cap space.
- The Pacers waived center Micah Potter shortly after picking up his $2.8 million club option to create roster space, leaving Indiana with one remaining open contract before the season.
- Nance, a 33-year-old veteran, arrives at his sixth NBA franchise after spending last season with the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he averaged 3.7 points and 2.7 rebounds across 35 games.
- Nance will provide frontcourt support as a backup five behind center Ivica Zubac, joining a rotation that includes Pascal Siakam, Obi Toppin, and Jay Huff in Indiana's frontcourt.
