It was announced by Michael Scotto of HoopsHype that Golden State Warriors champion Jordan Bell has signed an Exhibit-10 contract with the Indiana Pacers. This deal will earn Bell an invite to training camp, but he will likely end up with Indiana's G-League team.

Bell, who won a championship with the Warriors in 2018, last played in the NBA with the Chicago Bulls. Bell appeared in just one game fo Chicago in the 2021-22 season, and played just six games the season before between Washington and Golden State.

Bell did play several G-League games in the 2021-22 season, appearing in 21 games for the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, and one for the Santa Cruz Warriors. Bell showed some scoring ability in those games, averaging 13.4 PPG on 62.5% from the field, and also pulled down 10.5 rebounds per game.

At 6'8", Bell is an interesting player, because he is undersized as a center, but his offensive game doesn't allow him to play forward. Listed as a center, Bell has taken 20 total three point shots in his NBA career, making just four of them. An outside shot is not a part of his game, which makes him tough to fit into lineups with another big on the floor. While Bell's athleticism has always made him intriguing, he has struggled to find consistency at the NBA level since appearing in 68 games for the Warriors in the 2018-19 season.
