Do you believe in second chances? The answer would be “Yes” for five NBA teams. When NBA training camp begins
The Indiana Pacers had to battle through different elements to try and have a successful season in 2021. The Pacers hired former Mavericks coach, Rick Carlisle, who is back for his second stint with the team after coaching them previously.
