Power Forward Thursdays: T.J. Leaf is killing the G-league

Related Topics: T. J. Leaf

T.J. Leaf hasn’t gotten much of a chance to prove he belongs in the Indiana Pacers rotation. Since November 10th, Leaf has played more than seven minutes in only two of the Pacers 16 games in that time period, and he did not get a chance to play at all on two separate occasions. He wasn’t getting enough playing time, or reps, to develop appropriately. Because of this, on December 16th the Pacers announced they were sending Leaf to the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, the Pacers G-league affiliate, so he could get more playing time and development.
