Indiana Pacers: A Look at the Newest Players
Jordan Hill
Last team: Los Angeles Lakers
Strength: Rebounding
Jordan Hill was not acquired via the Roy Hibbert trade like some think, but was instead signed as a free agent after the Hibbert deal was completed. Hill isn’t the most versatile player, nor the most talented, but will be a good asset in the rebounding department as Indiana looks to replace both it’s Big Dawg and floor general.

He isn’t known for his scoring and probably won’t even be Indiana’s starter if Turner continues to progress the way he had during the Summer League, but he’ll be welcomed in the new style of play.
Glenn Robinson III
Last team: Philadelphia 76ers
Strength: Athleticism/Perimeter Defense
Robinson III enjoyed a pretty good run with Michigan that included a national championship loss, and after time with the Minnesota T’wolves who drafted him in the 2nd round in 2014, he was waived and moved on to Philadelphia where he again could not earn a deal. The Pacers signed him as a free agent. Robinson III is a Gary, Indiana product who many are quite familiar with, and who is still a budding talent trying to make his way in the league. The Pacers won’t need a whole lot of help at his position, but if he can bring more to the team than Solomon Hill he will at least see some minutes.
