“It’s a day of mixed emotions,” said a source close to (Danny) Granger. “He’s obviously excited for the next chapter of his career and showing the league how ready he is. But at the same time, this organization has been very important to him for years and he’s made a ton of friends and so obviously saying bye to those close friends and teammates and others within the organization is going to be tough for he and his wife (Dionna).”
Only five players have spent more time with the Pacers.
In a statement released by the team, Pacers President of Basketball Operations Larry Bird said: “We thank Danny for his eight-and-a-half seasons with us and we appreciate everything he did for us in his time here. We felt we needed to make this trade to strengthen the core unit and our bench. In Evan and Lavoy, we think we got two really good players that can help us and we look forward to what they can bring.”
