Pacers: Waived C Micah Potter.

The Indiana Pacers are deep in a rebuilding phase, sitting at 19–63 on the season and ranked 14th in the Eastern Conference. Their power ranking of 26th, a two‑game losing streak and a 3–7 record in the last ten games underscore the challenges they face as they look to reshape the roster.

Center Micah Potter, who wore jersey #9 for the Portland Trail Blazers, posted modest numbers this season: 9.7 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game over 47 appearances while shooting 51.5% from the field. By waiving him, the Pacers free up a roster spot, and Potter becomes available to other teams that may need depth at the center position.
