The Pacers will become the fourth team to be included in the James Harden deal sending Victor Oladipo to the Rockets in exchange for a package around Caris LeVert, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
LeVert was part of the blockbuster package that the Nets put together to acquire Harden. Brooklyn sent Jarrett Allen and Taurean Prince to the Cavs in order to net Houston with another first-round pick.
In total, Houston will net four first-rounders and four pick swaps in addition to Oladipo, Dante Exum, and Rodions Kurucs.
