The Brooklyn Nets are in full rebuild mode after trading Mikal Bridges and potentially looking to move Cam Johnson and other veterans, with interest from multiple teams including the Lakers. Meanwhile, the Indiana Pacers are expected to be quiet in free agency after securing Pascal Siakam on a four-year, $189.5 million contract. Despite Jalen Smith opting out, the Pacers aim to keep their core intact. GM Chad Buchanan emphasized the team's satisfaction with its current roster and chemistry, suggesting minimal changes. The Pacers' financial constraints, with major contracts like Tyrese Haliburton's kicking in, further limit their free agency activities.
