The Indiana Pacers have moved on from the veteran center, Tony Bradley.
According to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, the Pacers will cut ties with him after he nearly appeared in 30 games with the team throughout the 2025-2026 NBA season.
Via @MikeAScotto: The Indiana Pacers have waived center Tony Bradley, league sources told @hoopshype. Bradley was on a non-guaranteed deal with the January 10th deadline looming.
Last season, Bradley first joined the Pacers with a 10-day contract. After he played on back-to-back temporary deals, the Pacers signed Bradley for the remainder of the 2024-2025 NBA season.
The Pacers had a team option for the 2025-2026 season. They picked it up over the summer, bringing Bradley into the year as a rotational center. His salary was set at $2.9 million. It was non-guaranteed until January 10.
This year, Bradley appeared in 29 games with the Pacers, even picking up three starts. He averaged 10.7 minutes of action with the team when playing.
Bradley posted averages of 3.9 points (56% FG), 2.6 rebounds, and under one block per game.
The veteran center has been in the league since 2017. He entered the NBA as a 28th overall pick out of North Carolina.
Bradley started his career with the Utah Jazz. He was traded to the Detroit Pistons in 2020, but quickly flipped to the Philadelphia 76ers. He spent 20 games with the Sixers before getting traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
In 2021, Bradley signed with the Chicago Bulls. He stuck with the Bulls for multiple seasons before getting waived in 2023. Following his Bulls tenure, Bradley bounced around the NBA G League, having stints in Texas and Georgia.
Following his two-season tenure with the Pacers, it’s unclear what’s next for Bradley.
