The Indiana Pacers have one of the league’s best big man rotation. Heading into the 2021-22 NBA season, the team will parade its frontcourt as one of their biggest anchorages in their bid to make noise in the Eastern Conference after last season’s dismal finish.

With two-time All-Star Domantas Sabonis leading the charge and defensive phenom Myles Turner as his sidekick in the starting frontcourt, the Pacers have two talented big men to anchor the team, with the former serving as an efficient offensive catalyst and triple-double machine and the latter uniquely functioning as a deterring rim protector who can hoist triples.
