The Indiana Pacers wrap up 2024 summer league play today with a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Pacers and Cavaliers are both 1-3 in their summer exhibitions so far.
Indiana has been inconsistent in large part thanks to their lack of shot creation ability on their roster. Open looks are hard to come by, and rim pressure is more important in that setting.
