Bradley became a free agent Thursday after his second 10-day contract with the Pacers expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
The Pacers could opt to bring Bradley back by re-signing him to a rest-of-season deal, though the team may prefer to have the open roster spot for flexibility purposes in advance of next week's trade deadline. Prior to signing his pair of 10-day contracts, Bradley had been on a standard contract with the Pacers until being waived Jan. 5. Over his 37 appearances (three starts) with Indiana this season, Bradley has shot 55.7 percent from the field while averaging 4.1 points, 2.9 rebounds and 0.5 assists in 11.2 minutes.

Pacers' Tony Bradley: Signs another 10-day deal
Rotowire
Bradley signed another 10-day contract with the Pacers on Monday.
Bradley has appeared in each of Indiana's last seven games, averaging 3.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 0.7 assists in 12.7 minutes per contest. He will be available for Monday's game against the 76ers, but he's not a lock to see the floor with Isaiah Jackson healthy again.

Tony Bradley: Back on open market
Rotowire
Bradley became a free agent Sunday after his 10-day contract with the Pacers expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Indiana reportedly intends to re-sign Bradley to a second 10-day deal, so expect a new agreement on a contract to be reached prior to the Pacers' next game Monday in Philadelphia. Bradley has appeared in each of Indiana's last seven games and averaged 3.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 0.7 assists in 12.7 minutes per contest during that stretch, but if he's re-signed, he could be at risk of falling back out of the rotation. The Pacers got Isaiah Jackson (concussion) back from an extended absence in Saturday's loss to the Pistons, and head coach Rick Carlisle may not be willing to regularly make room in the rotation for Bradley as a third option at center behind Jay Huff and Jackson.

Pacers' Tony Bradley: Logs 20 minutes Wednesday
Rotowire
Bradley amassed two points (2-2 FT) and four rebounds in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 115-101 loss to the Raptors.
Bradley played at least 20 minutes for just the second time this season, as head coach Rick Carlisle continues to shuffle his center rotation. Despite the increase in playing time, Bradley failed to produce anything of note. At this stage, there is no reason to consider him a pickup outside of very deep formats.

Rotowire
Bradley signed a 10-day contract with the Pacers on Thursday.

Tony Bradley: Cut loose by Indiana
Rotowire
Bradley was waived by the Pacers on Monday, NBA reporter Jake Fischer reports.
Bradley wasn't very involved in his last seven games with Indiana, averaging 1.3 points and 2.6 rebounds in 7.9 minutes, so his release isn't all that surprising. His contract was scheduled to become guaranteed Wednesday, so his release will free up some cap space for the Pacers.

Pacers' Tony Bradley: Muted role continues
Rotowire
Bradley supplied three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT) and four rebounds in 11 minutes during Saturday's 142-116 loss to Miami.
Bradley continues to play a muted role for the Pacers, despite the fact that Isaiah Jackson is currently sidelined due to a concussion. Bradley has now played fewer than 15 minutes in 12 straight games, many of which have been garbage-time appearances. At this point, there is no reason to consider adding him, even in deeper formats.

Pacers' Tony Bradley: Available to play
Rotowire
Bradley (thumb) will be available to play Saturday versus the Pelicans.
Per Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star, Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle acknowledged that Bradley's fractured right thumb is only "partially functional" with a splint, so while he may be used as a big body on defense, it doesn't sound like he'll be a significant part of the rotation. Bradley shouldn't be viewed as a viable target in fantasy leagues.

Pacers' Tony Bradley: Plays ahead of Wiseman
Rotowire
Bradley produced two points (1-1 FG, 0-1 FT) and one block in 10 minutes during Thursday's 141-135 double-overtime loss to the Thunder.
Isaiah Jackson drew the start at center, but head coach Rick Carlisle quickly adjusted to smaller lineups. Jackson finished with only eight minutes, while Obi Toppin (40) and Jarace Walker (39) saw a ton of playing time as small-ball fives. Bradley was the next center up behind Jackson, with James Wiseman notably not part of the Opening Night rotation.
