Overview
- Robinson‑Earl’s new contract runs through November 20 and pays $141,463 with a $131,970 cap hit.
- He has appeared in five games for Indiana, averaging 5.2 points and 6.8 rebounds in 17.4 minutes on 32.3% shooting.
- NBA rules bar a third 10-day with the same team this season, leaving Indiana to decide on a rest-of-season deal or letting him go after this term.
- The Pacers hold a full 15-man roster yet qualified for hardship exceptions due to multiple injuries, and Cody Martin is also on a 10-day hardship contract.
- Injuries to Tyrese Haliburton, Johnny Furphy, Obi Toppin, Bennedict Mathurin and Kam Jones helped trigger eligibility for the exemption, and Robinson‑Earl’s two short-term deals total about $264,000.
