Pacers sign Jalen Slawson to two-way contract

Pacers lock Jalen Slawson to two-way deal after summer league surge

Jalen Slawson, a 26-year-old forward, received a qualifying offer from Indiana before free agency opened, making him a restricted free agent. After a one-year two-way contract was signed in February, he entered the Pacers’ summer-league mini-camp with a clear mission: prove he belongs. Over 13 summer-league games he posted 7.3 points and 4.4 rebounds per contest, while also averaging more than a steal and a block each night.

Those numbers suggest a role that could exceed the typical two-way call-up.

Pacers eye Siakam-Oubre small-ball unit for closing minutes

The Indiana Pacers are weighing a small-ball option for the final five minutes of games in the 2026-27 season. The concept centers on a faster, perimeter-oriented five that swaps traditional post size for the athleticism of Pascal Siakam and the shooting range of Kelly Oubre Jr. This unit would sit behind the core of Tyrese Haliburton and Andrew Nembhard on the wings, offering a contrast to the conventional lineup anchored by center Ivica Zubac.
