The Pacers appear to rebuilding on the fly, hoping to avoid a prolonged spell in the lottery. Indiana appears to be targeting younger players, like Tyrese Haliburton, instead of draft picks. So, Hield's fit in Indiana is questionable at best. The Pacers are allegedly open to moving him before the trade deadline, which is this Thursday at 3 pm ET.

Hield is averaging 14.4 points while shooting 36.8% on three-pointers this season. He was closely linked to the Los Angeles Lakers last offseason before the Lakers proceeded with a trade for Russell Westbrook. Assuming Indiana's asking price is reasonable, they should not have much trouble finding a taker for Hield.
