The Indiana Pacers are reportedly looking to trade for a center, but their alleged targets might not include Cleveland Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen, according to a new piece from HoopsHype's Michael Scotto.
"The Pacers have been searching for a long-term starting center upgrade," Scotto wrote on January 6. "The Pacers gauged the price tag on various centers leaguewide this season, including Utah’s Walker Kessler, Los Angeles’ Ivica Zubac, Brooklyn’s Nicolas Claxton, Dallas’ Daniel Gafford, New Orleans’ Yves Missi, and others."
Could Allen be a part of the "others" group suggested by Scotto? Sure, but wouldn't it have made sense for Scotto to feature Allen by name, given the fact that he mentioned an inferior asset in Missi?
