Hinton signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Pacers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

With Indiana upgrading Terry Taylor and Duane Washington to standard NBA contracts, Hinton and Gabe York were brought in from the G League's Fort Wayne Mad Ants to fill the two open two-way slots. Hinton, who went undrafted out of Houston in 2020, appeared in 21 games for the Mavericks in 2020-21 and two for the Pacers earlier this season when the team required COVID-19-related reinforcements. Hinton could fill a small role off the bench for the Pacers' final two games of the season.
