Indiana's Tyrese Haliburton will miss at least two weeks with the left hamstring strain.
Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton has sustained a left hamstring strain and will miss time, sources tell ESPN. Pacers doctors and Haliburton are now gathering a clear timeline.

The Pacers salary cap situation means it is effectively impossible for Johnson to remain on the team heading into the regular season. Johnson told me last summer he had no plans to retire. Pacers didn't have a spot for him last year.
James Johnson was with the Pacers in Nashville for their players-only minicamp, and he's going to sign a contract to come to training camp with the Pacers, a league source tells me. Beloved veteran coming in on an Exhibit 9 deal.

So the Pacers basically traded Keaton Wagler and Isaiah Jackson for Ivica Zubac and Kobe Brown.

Indiana has now signed Kobe Brown and Jalen Slawson to two-way deals this offseason. Ethan Thompson is also on a two-way deal, but @DustinDopirak reported Braden Smith would be signed to one, however that transaction has not officially happened yet. It is worth noting that Indiana has enough first apron space to sign Smith to a standard deal if they would like to keep Thompson around on a two-way, but there鈥檚 been no indication of that. What we do know is that either Ethan Thompson or Braden Smith will get the last two-way spot.
The Indiana Pacers and Jalen Slawson have agreed to a two-way deal, league sources told @hoopshype. Slawson averaged 7.3 points on 44.2% shooting from the field and 37.5% from 3-point range, 4.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.1 blocks in 13 games for Indiana last season

Replying to @Pacers
Slick Leonard was truly one of the finest human beings I鈥檝e ever known. From the very first day I joined the Pacers, he sat me down and made sure I understood the history of this team鈥攖he blood, sweat, and pride that came before me. But more than anything, he looked me in the eye and told me something I鈥檝e carried with me ever since: always leave it better than the person who came before you. That wasn鈥檛 just advice to him. It was how he lived. He poured his heart into this franchise, this city, and every person who was lucky enough to cross his path. He made everyone around him better鈥攑layers, coaches, fans, broadcasters. He left this game, this organization, and so many lives richer simply because he was in them. Thank you, Slick. For the wisdom, the kindness, the laughter, and the standard you set. You didn鈥檛 just talk about leaving things better鈥攜ou showed us how to do it every single day. Rest easy, my friend. You left this world better than you found it. @pacers forever!

Spilled too much ink on the next steps for the Pacers here. More concise: They can't fit in Nance under the first apron without either A) signing him to an Exhibit 10 deal or B) waiving either Micah Potter or Quenton Jackson. Looking for the clarity.

Indiana Pacers are just $1.6 million below the first apron hard cap after signing Kelly Oubre. Barring a trade, they'll go into the season over the tax line. They already reached the 14-player minimum roster requirement. They'd need to save money to use more of their mid-level.
The Pacers can sign Kelly Oubre to these terms with the non-taxpayer mid-level exception. They are now hard-capped to the first apron and are $6.5 million above the luxury tax line. They can get under the tax by trading a combination of their lower-end rotation players.
