The Indiana Pacers introduce themselves on media day for the 2025-26 season at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Monday, Sept. 29. The Pacers are coming off a trip to Game 7 of the NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder, though hopes of getting there again are uncertain because star guard Tyrese Haliburton suffered an Achilles injury that will keep him out of the upcoming season.

Pascal Siakam remains Indiana's top scoring option, Andrew Nembhard 's role will shift and Bennedict Mathurin is stepping into the starting lineup to fill Haliburton's void. Four players will vie for playing time in the post after Myles Turner's departure to the Milwaukee Bucks . Coach Rick Carlisle is back for his fifth season in his second stint with the team.
