Isaiah Jackson will remain an Indiana Pacer, as the free agent center agreed to a three-year, $21 million contract, according to multiple reports Friday.
Jackson only played in five games in the 2024-25 campaign before suffering a torn Achilles' tendon in November.
The Kentucky product showed promise in his initial campaign of 2021-22, averaging 8.3 points and 4.1 rebounds per game in 36 contests (15 starts). His scoring numbers declined in the next two seasons, but he still averages 7.2 points per game in 163 games (31 starts) and has converted 59.5 percent from the floor.
Indiana hopes that a healthy Jackson, returner James Wiseman and new Pacer Jay Huff can make up for the loss of Myles Turner in the front court.
Jackson was a 2021 first-round selection by the Los Angeles Lakers, but came to Indiana in a five-team trade that summer.
