The opportunity is coming? Wiseman s Achilles tendon tear has been reimbursed for a year

Wiseman's real opportunity is here! In the offseason, the Pacers lost Miles Turner, which had a huge impact on the Pacers. After all, Turner has always been the Pacers' starting five position, and it is not easy to find a replacement immediately.

Pacers traded with the Grizzlies with a second round pick (2029, from the Trail Blazers) and a second round pick swap right (2031) with the Grizzlies, who averaged 6.9 points and 2 rebounds per game last season. The Pacers used few chips to obtain a simple center, which was also a season-long reimbursement, and they could not do anything about Halliburton.

In addition to introducing Khufu, the Pacers signed back to free agent Wiseman. On June 30, the Pacers executed Tony Bradley's team options for next season, worth 2.64 million, but a non-guaranteed contract.

In the new season, Khufu may be the starting center, and Wiseman is likely to become the Pacers' first substitute in the new season.

According to famous reporter Michael Scotto, Wiseman signed a two-year contract worth 5.69 million, of which only 1 million is guaranteed in the first year and the team option in the second year.

In the 2024 offseason, the Pacers and Wiseman signed a 1+1 contract, with about 4.78 million US dollars in two years. The annual salary in the first year is 2.2 million, only 500,000 yuan is guaranteed. The second year is the team option, but only 570,000 yuan is guaranteed.

Pacers originally wanted Wiseman to be Turner's first substitute, but unfortunately Wiseman suffered a torn Achilles tendon after only one game in the regular season and was reimbursed for the season. The Pacers sent Wiseman and cash to the Raptors for a second round pick with the top 55 pick. The Raptors then announced the layoff of Wiseman.

Unexpectedly, Wiseman was reimbursed for one season, and after returning, the contract was even more than the previous year. This is due to Wiseman's terrifying talent. As the second-tier show in 2019, it is 2.11 meters tall and has an arm span of 2.26 meters. Wiseman's dynamic and static talents are all top in the league. Unfortunately, the Warriors did not have the environment for him to grow up.

has entered the league for five seasons, and Wiseman is only 24 years old this year, the same age as some older rookies who have just entered the league.

Pacers are equivalent to low-cost investment and obtaining an inside player who can play rotation. This contract is definitely not a loss. This contract is a chance for Wiseman and Pacers.

Wiseman's playing style is that he has outstanding finishing skills in the inside, and he is good at pick-and-roll. He has a good hit rate at the basket and close-range throws.

In addition, Wiseman is a center who can switch to the outside line, with good lateral movement speed, and the frame guarding under the basket also has great deterrence.

Although Wiseman's cover is questioned by fans, fake cover is also his feature, which is very suitable for the Pacers' pass-through system. He is a center with an aerial threat. Wiseman appeared as Turner's first substitute in the preseason. His finishing ability at the basket can provide Siakam with some pass threats

With Wiseman at the basket, Halliburton and Siakam's pick-and-roll, there are also more options. Sika's external bullets and threats can provide Wiseman with a chance to end the basket.

Wiseman has good frontcourt rebounding ability and a high second offensive success rate.

Pacers are attracted by Wiseman's offensive threat and a large radiation range on the defensive end. Wiseman's protection against rebounding is still above the passing line.

Although the Pacers intend to use Khufu to replace Turner as the starter, Khufu has limited ability and whether he can be competent for the starter remains to be seen. Wiseman has the potential and ability to become a starting center. For Wiseman, technology is not the most important thing, and health is the first priority for him, after all, he missed too many games due to injuries.

Does he still have a chance to become a starting center? In my opinion, after a healthy season, it is no problem to become the starting center and the contract will be guaranteed.
