Free agent center Andrew Bynum is currently in Indianapolis with his agent to meet with the Indiana Pacers.

Candace Buckner of the Indianapolis Star has the scoop.

"Bynum’s agent David Lee told The Indianapolis Star that he and Bynum were in town. According to Lee, Bynum and the Pacers have not reached a contractual agreement.“(Bynum) has not signed as yet,” Lee said on Friday night"

Bynum was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers from the Los Angeles Lakers, where he spent the first seven years of his career, in a four-team deal that sent Dwight Howard to Los Angeles, Nikola Vucevic to the Orlando Magic and Andre Iguodala to the Denver Nuggets. Bynum missed the entire 2012-13 season with knee injuries and signed with the Cleveland Cavaliers before this season began. Bynum and the Cavaliers clashed and he was traded to the Chicago Bulls, who planned to release Bynum, in exchange for Luol Deng.

The Bulls released Bynum on January 7.

Bynum fought through injuries to play in 24 games this season. He’s averaged 8.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.1 assists per game.
