Pacers hire Calbert Cheaney as assistant coach

Turns out, Nate Bjorkgren wasn’t quite done rounding out his team of assistants for next season. According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Pacers are hiring former IU star and Big Ten career scoring leader Calbert Cheaney as an assistant coach. The news comes just three days after the team announced the rest of the coaching staff with a formal release, making for somewhat curious timing given his history with current (and perhaps somewhat disgruntled) Pacers star Victor Oladipo.

OFFICIAL: Kaleb Canales and Greg Foster have been hired as assistant coaches to join Coach Bjorkgren's coaching staff.
