Point guard Josh Giddey, who may be the best remaining free agent on the market, posted a picture on his Instagram story with Tyrese Haliburton's signature shoes and captioned it with the eyes emoji.

Giddey is a restricted free agent, and could fill the hole Haliburton left on the roster when he went down with an Achilles injury in the NBA Finals.

Another Pacer who suffered an unfortunate Achilles injury last season is Isaiah Jackson, though he is progressing well towards recovery.

“It’s going along real well. I think I’m probably like 80 to 90 percent to being back," Jackson said. "I should be back by training camp. That’s the plan. That’s what we’re on the trajectory of right now. So [I’m] just looking forward to being back with these guys and playing again.”

Former Pacer Tristen Newton picked up a two-way qualifying offer to rejoin the Minnesota Timberwolves next season. The Pacers waived him last season, and he joined the Timberwolves two days later.
