The Indiana Pacers have decided to waive guard Taelon Peter following the conclusion of Summer League activities. Peter, a second-round pick in 2025, averaged 4.5 points in 38 games last season. His inconsistent shooting performance, particularly from three-point range, contributed to the decision. The Pacers aim to finalize their roster soon, as three players are still competing for the two available two-way contract spots. The team is focused on competing for a championship in the upcoming season.
