Pacers Re-sign Isaiah Jackson After Achilles Injury

The Indiana Pacers have re-signed center Isaiah Jackson to a three-year, $21 million contract after making him a restricted free agent with a qualifying offer. Jackson is returning from a torn Achilles that limited his appearances last season, but the team values his athleticism and energy. With Myles Turner now on the Milwaukee Bucks, Jackson is expected to compete for a larger role in the frontcourt alongside James Wiseman, Jay Huff, and Tony Bradley. The Pacers see this deal as a low-risk investment in their young core during a transitional period. Jackson’s upcoming performance is considered pivotal for Indiana’s rebuilding efforts. The team now has 15 players signed, likely excluding veterans Thomas Bryant and James Johnson from the roster.
