Update On Plans To Honor Mel Daniels

In tribute to Indiana Pacers Hall of Famer Mel Daniels, who passed away Friday, the team announced Saturday its plans to honor the three-time American Basketball Association champion.

For tonight’s game with Utah, there will be a brief video tribute followed by a moment of silence prior to tipoff.

For Wednesday’s game with Boston, there will be a celebration of Mel’s life and playing career at halftime.

Thursday afternoon, in conjunction with Mel’s wife, CeCe, and his former teammates, Bankers Life Fieldhouse will hold a public memorial service. Details are still being finalized and will be communicated Monday.
