The Pacers already were bringing in seven new players, so what's one more?
Toney Douglas already has played for six NBA teams, so what's one more?
Perhaps it was inevitable, then, that Douglas and the Pacers would hook up this year. The partially-guaranteed contract signed on Monday will allow him an opportunity to extend an NBA career that has spanned six seasons, and provide them with a capable guard who offers definite training camp depth and potential regular season contributions should an injury or trade create an opening.
Douglas is primarily a defender, but has shown scoring ability.
