Pacers must come to terms with tough reality ahead of trade season

The Indiana Pacers reportedly want to make a trade for a center this season (specifically Dallas Mavericks big man Daniel Gafford), but they have limited assets. In order for them to make a deal, they would likely have to trade Bennedict Mathurin or Andrew Nembhard, and unless it's an obvious upgrade, this would not be a smart move for them to make.

Jake Fischer reported that Indiana had interest in Gafford before news broke that Dereck Lively II would miss the entire season to undergo foot surgery (h/t Shams Charania of ESPN).
