Pacers seek to retain West

[Rios15]

The Pacers and David West—their soon to be unrestricted free agent power forward—are committed to extending their relationship, according to the Indianapolis Star's Bob Kravitz. Team President Donnie Walsh declared that Indiana wants to keep West earlier today.

It's against NBA rules for the Pacers to offer West an extension right now, but both parties have made it known they're interested in getting something done this offseason. Along with Paul George, West has been Indiana's most valuable player this season, and retaining him for off the court reasons are just as important, due to his positive influence with younger players in the locker room.

hes on a fairly decent contract but theyd be fools to give him anything higher than what hes at now.

I love DWest, favorite all time Hornet.

I think a 3 year 24 million deal is fair for both sides.
