Bells Ring as Pacers Open Training Camp

The bell kept ringing at the first day of Pacers training camp on Tuesday. That's a good thing.

As the media filed into the Ascension St. Vincent Center for the end of Tuesday's practice, the players were taking part in shooting drills, a standard end to an NBA workout.

But as the players hoisted baskets on the various baskets across the two practice courts, at one point Jeremy Lamb made his way to the northeast corner of the gym, ringing a bell that was recently installed on the wall. His teammates erupted in cheers.

Minutes later, rookie Chris Duarte, who was shooting on the basket closest over to the bell, sprinted over to the bell and rang several times it enthusiastically.
