Michael Scotto: Lance Stephenson wants to re-sign with the Indiana Pacers as a free agent this offseason, a league source close to Stephenson told HoopsHype. Whether Indiana goes into a full rebuild or retool, Lance believes he fits into either scenario. Ultimately, he wants to spend the rest of his career in Indiana, I’m told.

Austin Rivers just got a tech for throwing an elbow at Lance Stephenson. He’s been ejected. #Pacers tie the game with a FT from Keifer Sykes. 8:14 left in the game. Knotted at 100. – 8:58 PM

Scott Agness: Lance Stephenson has signed with the Pacers for the rest of the season, league source told @FieldhouseFiles. He previously was on two 10-day hardship contracts, then two standard 10-days. This is his third stint with the franchise. This is a rest-of-season contract, not a multi-year deal. So he’ll finish the season with the Pacers, then be a free agent. The Pacers had a roster spot available after waiving Kelan Martin on Jan. 6. -via Twitter @ScottAgness / February 3, 2022
Indiana Pacers guard Lance Stephenson has agreed to a deal for the rest of the season, his agents Mark Bartelstein and Reggie Brown of Priority Sports told ESPN on Wednesday night. Stephenson transformed himself into one of the season’s better comeback stories, turning a 10-day COVID-19 exception into three more successive 10-day deals and a return to the rotation for a franchise where he’s remained a largely popular figure. -via ESPN / February 3, 2022
