It is no secret that Domantas Sabonis has been the most important player for the Indiana Pacers so far this season.
Over his three seasons with the Pacers, Sabonis has steadily improved with time. The power forward’s development has translated into being one of the more well-rounded big men in the NBA.
Due to the consistent growth, the 23-year-old has proved he has yet to reach his ceiling. That has led Sabonis to be considered one of the league’s blossoming stars.
Entering this season, there was a sense of urgency by the Pacers’ front office to keep Sabonis under contract during the prime of his career.
