Assessing New Indiana Pacers: Jeff Teague
Indiana Pacers newcomer Jeff Teague brings a different style of play to the point guard position. Here, I analyze his biggest strength as well as his biggest weakness.
We were not far into the off-season before Larry Bird and the Indiana Pacers finally acquired a “true” point guard, which had been a topic of discussion in the front office for the last few seasons.
On June 22nd, one day before the 2016 NBA Draft, the Pacers traded one hometown hero for another by acquiring Atlanta Hawks guard Jeff Teague in a three team deal that sent George Hill to the Utah Jazz.
It is no secret that Teague brings a different style of play to the Pacers. But what does he do well, and what could he improve?
