Fantasy Basketball Draft Guide 2025: Indiana Pacers Team Preview
Last Updated on August 25, 2026 9:44 am by André Lemos | Published: August 29, 2025
How’d We Get Here?
The Pacers did it again, finding another level to their game in the playoffs to dispatch favored opponents time and time again. What looked like a season for the ages ended in tragic fashion as Tyrese Haliburton, postseason hero and franchise player, tore his Achilles in Game 7 of the Finals. It’s going to knock him out for all of 2025-26 and the Pacers will reset in a go-nowhere year without their superstar. Indiana wouldn’t commit a big contract to Myles Turner, who shockingly left the only team he had ever known to sign with division rival Milwaukee in a move that left the Pacers perilously thin at center. With Haliburton out and the longest-tenured player gone, the Pacers are looking at a mighty uphill climb this season. It’s a roster with some major question marks and while we have all learned not to doubt this group, Indiana might’ve stumbled upon a challenge that even they can’t conquer.
