Entering the 2021-22 NBA season, the Indiana Pacers are on the outside looking in after missing the playoffs in the previous campaign. However, with a new coach in Rick Carlisle and some unflashy, yet solid additions in the offseason, the team should be back in the competitive mix if healthy.
Led by a very well-rounded starting five bannered by All-Star Domantas Sabonis and an incredibly deep supporting cast, the Pacers have what it takes to sneak up on their more talented and flashy competitors, even in a much-improved Eastern Conference.
