Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports and The Vertical has reported that “Al Jefferson has agreed in principle to a three-year, $30M deal with Indiana.” The former Charlotte Hornets’ center was an unrestricted free agent this summer. He has spent he past three years with the team.
The Hornets’ roster is drastically changing and it now seems as if Big Al will be moving on from Charlotte after signing back in 2013. He had a down season filled with multiple injuries last year and will be looking for a change of scenery in Indiana. The Pacers have a need at their center position and they have now filled it with Jefferson.
