George Hill returning to Pacers with 2nd-rounder

The Indiana Pacers are acquiring guard George Hill and a second-round pick from the Milwaukee Bucks.

What It Means:

Hill, Jordan Nwora, and Serge Ibaka are all being traded from the Bucks to the Pacers on deadline day. At the age of 36, Hill is unlikely to find consistent minutes for a rebuilding Pacers team that already has Tyrese Haliburton, Andrew Nembhard, T.J. McConnell, and Chris Duarte in the backcourt.

Hill averaged 12.2 FanDuel points and 19.1 minutes over 35 games for the Bucks this season. The minutes are the lowest since Hill's rookie season (16.5).
