Former NC State ACC Player of the Year T.J. Warren will play his first regular season game for Indiana tonight, after spending his first 5 seasons in Phoenix. Back in June, the Suns traded Warren to the Pacers, along with the #32 pick for cash considerations. Warren only ended up playing 1 year of his the 4-year contract in Phoenix that he signed prior to last season, worth $47 million. Tony Buckets averaged 18.0 points last year, and shot 42.8 percent shooting from 3-point land.
Warren has a little bit of a chip on his shoulder believing that Phoenix made a mistake, believing that he is worth more than cash.
