After missing just about all of last season, the Pacers were looking to have Danny Granger back in the lineup all year long. And with Paul George’s emergence last season, Indy looks like they’re poised to make Miami sweat.
But the big “if” is Granger’s health. He is suffering from a strained calf and will miss the first two games. Hopefully this isn’t something that lingers.
They were looking to add Granger back into the offense and rotation for the 2013-14 season but that idea is apparently on hold. According to Scott Agness of Pacers.com, coach Frank Vogel informed everybody that Granger’s calf strain will keep him out of the first two games of the regular season when the Pacers tip off Tuesday night.
