Thomas Bryant is making his return to Indiana as the Pacers acquire him from the Miami Heat. This move comes after the team faced significant injuries to key players, leaving them in search of a backup center.

With the trade pending until December 15, Bryant, a former Indiana Hoosier, is expected to play a more prominent role in the Pacers' lineup. Known for his offensive skills, he brings experience from his time with the Washington Wizards and Los Angeles Lakers.
