The Indiana Pacers and guard/forward Aaron Nesmith agreed to a three-year, $33 million extension ahead of the season, his agents told ESPN on Monday.
Nesmith, 24, is entering his fourth season in the league and coming off a career-best scoring output from last season. He averaged 10.1 points in 73 games (60 starts) for the Pacers in 2022-23.
The Pacers acquired Nesmith in the trade that sent Malcolm Brogdon to Boston in July 2022.
Nesmith has averaged 6.7 points in 171 career games (64 starts) for the Celtics and Pacers. The Celtics selected him No. 14 overall in the 2020 draft.
The Pacers open their season at home against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday.
