Brown had six points (3-4 FG) and four rebounds in seven minutes during Wednesday's 130-113 loss to the Rockets. Brown came off the bench in his season debut, playing seven minutes. With Indiana having lost both James Wiseman and Isaiah Jackson to season-ending Achilles injuries, Brown should be able to pick up consistent minutes playing behind Myles Turner. Brown has the ability to be a strong per-minute producer and could step into a larger role should Turner miss any time over the course of the season.

Brown (recently signed) isn't on the injury report for Wednesday's game versus the Rockets. Brown signed with the Pacers earlier this week and is seemingly available to make his team debut against Houston. The 25-year-old big man is expected to compete for depth minutes in Indiana's frontcourt.

The Pacers are signing Brown to an NBA contract Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Brown has been playing in the G League with the Westchester Knicks, where he has averaged 18.5 points, 13.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.5 steals over 27.3 minutes per game across four outings. The Pacers lost backup big men James Wiseman and Isaiah Jackson to torn Achilles injuries, and with no other centers currently on the 15-man roster outside of Myles Turner (calf), Brown has an opportunity to come in and contribute immediately in a reserve role. Brown appeared in 22 regular-season games (including five starts) for the Trail Blazers during the 2023-24 campaign and averaged 3.4 points and 3.9 rebounds over 9.1 minutes per contest. Brown won't be available for Monday's game against the Raptors, but the hope is that he'll be available to play Wednesday against the Rockets, per Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star.

Brown was waived by the Knicks on Thursday. Brown put pen to paper on an Exhibit 10 contract Wednesday, but his time with the team didn't last long. He'll be a strong candidate to be brought back to play for New York's G League team, the Westchester Knicks.

Brown signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Knicks on Wednesday. The 7-foot-2, 258-pound center spent the 2023-24 season with the Trail Blazers, appearing in 22 contests (five starts) while averaging 3.4 points and 3.9 rebounds in 9.1 minutes per contest. After becoming a free agent in the offseason, Brown linked up with the Lakers for the Las Vegas Summer League, but he remained unsigned until striking a deal with the Knicks. The 24-year-old will get a chance to compete for a spot on the Knicks' 15-man roster for the remainder of the preseason but could be headed to the G League's Westchester Knicks if he gets cut before the Oct. 22 season opener versus the Celtics.
