The Indiana Pacers announced Monday they have waived Magnum Rolle, a 6-11, 235-pound center/forward.
Rolle, a 2010 second-round pick (51st overall) acquired by the Pacers from Oklahoma City in a draft night trade of picks, played in five preseason games, averaging 1.8 points and 1.4 rebounds per game.
The Pacers’ roster is now at the league-mandated 15 players.
“Unfortunately for Magnum, it’s a numbers game and we had to get down to 15 players,” said Pacers President of Basketball Operations Larry Bird. “We like Magnum, he played well for us and we’ll continue to scout him throughout the year.”
