Nembhard agrees to a 3-year, 59 million dollar extension with Pacers

Indiana Pacers player Andrew Nembhard has agreed to a 3-year, 59 million dollar deal extension that will keep him in the team through the 2027-28 campaign.

The guard – 1 of the breakout basketballers of the 2024 East Conference postseason – agreed on the maximum allowable money available to him on a 3-year contract. Indiana will decline his 2.2 million dollar team option in 2025-26, allowing for the new contract to start for his next campaign. Andrew became eligible to ink the contract at the beginning of the next week.
