The Indiana Pacers made a trade with the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday to send a 2019 second round pick in exchange for Rakeem Christmas.
Christmas, a 6-9 forward, played four seasons at Syracuse and averaged 7.8 points and 5.6 rebounds over his career. In May, Christmas participated in the first Pacers’ pre-draft workout as a potential second-round pick. On draft night, the Minnesota Timberwolves chose Christmas with the No. 36 selection and traded his rights to Cleveland.
