Thu Sep 30 201002:25Pacers loving rookie Magnum Rolle
The Pacers seem to be very impressed with rookie Magnum Rolle, who looked great in Wednesday's practice.
"He's so athletic," coach Jim O'Brien said. "He is extremely quick to the offensive glass. Because offensively he's always a threat from 17 feet away, a lot of the offensive rebounds he gets are away from the basket. It's hard to put a body on somebody that quick." He shouldn't have fantasy value, but is a nice sleeper in dynasty leagues that only have a rookie draft.

Thu Aug 12 201011:11Pacers patient as they look to retain Rolle
The Pacers want to keep second-round draft pick Magnum Rolle, but they'll need to clear a roster spot now that they've reached the maximum 15 guaranteed deals.
"He's a big part of what we're trying to do here," team president Larry Bird said. "It's a numbers game. We'll see what happens the next couple months ... He's very active, shoots the ball from 15, 17 feet as well as anyone on our team." Indy is trying to dump T.J. Ford's contract, which could eventually be Rolle's ticket to ride.

Sun Aug 1 201010:35Pacers rookie Rolle likely to make the cut
The Pacers' director of public information, Dave Benner, said recently that rookie Magnum Rolle has a "reasonable chance" of being with the team on opening day.
"He will be invited to training camp," said Benner. "I anticipate he will be signed before camp. We like how he played in the rookie camp and also what he showed in the Summer League. He is here in Indianapolis, working out on his own." The Pacers traded to acquire Rolle on draft day and it would be shocking if he wasn't retained.
