Jalen Smith Likely To Be Starting Power Forward
2 years agoIndiana Pacers forward Jalen Smith decided to stick around with the organization this offseason. He signed a two-year deal with the team, which could end up being a great move by Smith. Recently, head coach Rick Carlisle mentioned that Smith signed here to be the starting power forward. It's worth noting that the Pacers have Myles Turner, Goga Bitadze and Isaiah Jackson who should all be in the mix as well. However, Turner is likely to be traded and the other two big men usually play center. It sounds like Smith could be getting legitimate playing time next season. That should be good for his fantasy outlook, but it remains to be seen what Carlisle does with his rotations.
