The Indiana Pacers acquired Caris LeVert from the Brooklyn Nets and traded former All-Star guard Victor Oladipo to the Houston Rockets. The move was part of a four-team blockbuster deal that sent former MVP James Harden from Houston to Brooklyn. LeVert is a 6-foot-6 wing playing in his fifth season. He was originally drafted by Indiana before being sent to the Nets in a draft night trade for Thad Young in 2016. The former Michigan standout is averaging 18.5 points, six assists and 4.3 rebounds per game in 12 games this season with four starts.
The Indiana-Purdue rivalry reignites Thursday night at Assembly Hall. The Boilermakers have won seven straight in the series, including five straight since Archie Miller took over in Bloomington. Both teams have identical 8-5 records and are 3-3 in conference play. The Boilers are coming off a thrilling comeback win at Michigan State, while the Hoosiers survived at Nebraska. Both teams could use a rivalry win as a springboard to the rest of the season in a brutal Big Ten. The Hoosiers are coming off a stretch in which they played three games in seven days, while Thursday’s game wraps up a four-game stand away from home for Purdue. Indiana guard Armaan Franklin is a game-time decision with an ankle injury. IU is favored by three points for Thursday’s 7 p.m. Eastern tip.
