The Indiana Pacers are in need of frontcourt assistance following the season-ending injuries to backup centers Isaiah Jackson and James Wiseman. In a surprising move, they recently waived 7-foot-2 reserve Moses Brown, who was brought in to help compensate for these losses.
With the Pacers' defense struggling, allowing 118.2 points per game, discussions are underway about potential trades, including one for Orlando Magic power forward Jonathan Isaac. This deal could involve sending Obi Toppin and Jarace Walker to Orlando, with the hope of acquiring additional draft picks.
Isaac, despite his injury history, has shown elite defensive capabilities when healthy, making him a valuable asset for the Pacers as they aim to improve their playoff chances.
