4:10pm: The move is now official, according to a press release from the team.
4:03pm: The Pacers are waiving guard Jalen Lecque, Shams Charania of The Athletic tweets.
Indiana didn’t make any deadline deals on Thursday but the move will open up a roster spot. Lecque appeared in five games with Phoenix and only made four cameo appearances with Indiana this season.
He was sidelined by an ankle sprain in early January, then was sent to the G League bubble later that month. He averaged 14.3 PPG and 3.3 APG in 14 G League games with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants in Orlando.
Indiana acquired him in an offseason trade with the Thunder.
The athletic 20-year-old guard will seek a greater opportunity elsewhere.
