NBA Rumors: Indiana Pacers To Sign Lance Stephenson In NBA Free Agency?
Jun. 28 2016, Updated 10:39 a.m. ET
Just two short years ago, Lance Stephenson was a budding star for the Indiana Pacers, and his future looked incredibly bright. Unfortunately, he made the decision to leave the Pacers and sign with the Charlotte Hornets in free agency. He was ultimately traded to the Los Angeles Clippers, and then they dealt him to the Memphis Grizzlies in the middle of last season.
Memphis decided to decline his option, and he will enter unrestricted free agency this offseason. He will have a chance to sign with a team of his choosing once again and could end up heading back to the team that he shouldn’t have left in the first place.
Rumors are beginning to fly around on Twitter that the Pacers need to sign Stephenson.

Perhaps the most interesting part of this entire rumor is that Stephenson has gone on his official Twitter account and liked tweets asking him to come back to Indiana and a highlight mix tape of a previous season with the Pacers.
