Chandler Parsons Would Fit Perfectly For The Indiana Pacers
Jun. 25 2016, Updated 11:28 a.m. ET
The Indiana Pacers have had an impressive offseason so far, and Larry Bird is hoping to make another move or two before wrapping things up. They were able to acquire their much-needed starting point guard in Jeff Teague and backed that move up by trading the No. 20 pick in the 2016 NBA Draft to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for power forward Thaddeus Young.
Now, there is one glaring hole for the Pacers moving forward as free agency is set to begin on July 1.
Shooting is still a major need for the Pacers. They need to find a player or two who can help them spread the floor and knock down open shots. Monta Ellis is currently projected to be the starting point guard, and he will not help with three-point shooting at all after knocking down just 30.9 percent of his attempts last season.
Looking at the free agent pool, there is one player that would be a perfect fit for Indiana. Chandler Parsons is set to test free agency and Bird should show interest in him immediately when free agency opens up.
