Pacers trim roster, waive Elijah Stewart and Omari Johnson

The Pacers have waived Elijah Stewart and Omari Johnson, the team announced on Wednesday. With Ben Moore still awaiting his fate, the roster sits at 16 players. Though there still hasn’t been any official word on injured sharpshooter C.J. Wilcox, the 6-foot-5 wing was never listed on the training camp roster, which suggests that the Pacers may now or eventually have an available two-way contract up for grabs.

Edmond Sumner, who impressed during preseason play with his explosive change of speed and improved finishing touch in addition to his physical attributes while filling in at both guard positions, might well be primed to shake things up however.
