The final cuts were made to get the Indiana Pacers down to 15 players and Jeremy Evans and Julylan Stone found themselves on the chopping block.
Evans played in a pair of preseason games but didn’t record any stats while Stone played in garbage time during five games, scoring one point.
Both were signed this offseason.
Stone wasn’t expected to make the roster but Jeremy Evans seemed like a lock before the Pacers signed Kevin Seraphin. Evans is still recovering from shoulder surgery and that is likely the reason why he was cut.
On the bright side, this means (Rakeem) Christmas is saved!
