Seraphin has announced that he's retiring from professional basketball, Sportnado reports.
EDGE Analysis
Seraphin was the 17th overall pick in the 2010 NBA Draft and last saw NBA action with the Pacers during the 2016-17 campaign. He's been overseas since with Barcelona. During the 2018-19 season, he averaged 7.8 points and 3.7 rebounds in 14.0 minutes.

Seraphin is planning on signing a two-year contract in Barcelona once he clears waivers from the Pacers, Scott Agness of VigilantSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Seraphin seemingly didn't find any NBA suitors for the 2017-18 campaign after posting 4.7 points and 2.9 boards across 11.4 minutes per game with the Pacers last season. He'll opt to sign a deal overseas instead, where he'll likely see a much bigger role than he has over the past handful of years.

Seraphin was waived by the Pacers on Monday, Shams Charania of The Vertical reports.
EDGE Analysis
The decision comes just hours before Seraphin's deal for the 2017-18 season would have become guaranteed, so waiving the 27-year-old will save the Pacers close to $2 million against the cap. After coming over from New York as a free agent last summer, Seraphin appeared in only 49 games, averaging 4.7 points and 2.9 rebounds in 11.4 minutes per game.

Seraphin supplied 17 points (8-10 FG, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, and one steal in 19 minutes during Monday's 120-111 win over the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
Seraphin finished with a season high in scoring, and he is averaging 13.0 points per game over the last three tilts. Al Jefferson (ankle) was listed as active last Thursday, but he still hasn't suited up since March 26. If Jefferson remains sidelined for Wednesday's regular season finale versus the Hawks, it seems likely that Seraphin would once again be in line to receive most of the backup center minutes behind Myles Turner.

Seraphin totaled 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one block across 23 minutes during Thursday's 104-89 victory over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
With Al Jefferson (ankle) and Lavoy Allen both collecting DNP-CDs, Seraphin was asked to take on the bulk of the work as the Pacers' big man off the bench. He responded by putting together an efficient effort from the field and cleaning the glass well while seeing his most time on the floor since Feb. 16 against the Wizards, where he collected nine points, five rebounds and one assist across 25 minutes. While Seraphin can likely be ignored in most fantasy formats due to his spotty role in the Pacers' rotation, he makes for a possible DFS play when he's in line for extended minutes.

Seraphin produced two points (1-1 FG) and two rebounds across six minutes in a 87-81 loss to the Knicks on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The Pacers had a few extra minutes available in the frontcourt with bench big man Lavoy Allen (knee) sitting out, so Seraphin was able to enter the rotation for the first time in three games. Barring any other injuries to the team's core frontcourt options, Seraphin isn't likely to see his playing time pick up from here, so he can be left on the wire in most leagues.

Seraphin posted 8 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 25 minutes During Thursday's 111-98 loss to the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
With Thaddeus Young (wrist) and Lavoy Allen (knee) still sidelined, Seraphin once again drew the start and played about as well as he did against the Cavs Wednesday night. Coach Nate McMillan took a different tactic and gave Al Jefferson extended minutes in Seraphin's stead, and the veteran forward outscored Seraphin with 12 points over11 minutes. Losing a guy like Young would be tough on any team as he leads the Pacers in steals and field-goal percentage. His loss has helped extended the Pacers' losing streak to six straight. There's no need to rush in and grab Seraphin or Jefferson as the team hopes to see Young back after the All-Star break, and even if he misses more time the situation is too muddled to warrant taking a risk on either player.

Seraphin registered 12 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 27 minutes in Monday's 110-106 loss to the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Seraphin reached double-digit points for the fourth time this season in Monday night's start. He's averaged just 10.9 minutes on the season, but with both Thaddeus Young (wrist) and Lavoy Allen (knee) both out, he nearly tripled that average. If he wants to see more consistent minutes in the rotation, he's going to have to rebound more effectively than he did Monday, as four boards in 27 minutes won't cut it for a team that lacks true rebounders.

Seraphin will draw the start for Monday's tilt against the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
With Thaddeus Young (wrist) and Lavoy Allen (knee) out for Monday's game, the Pacers will opt to start Kevin Seraphin. Seraphin played 25 minutes during Friday's tilt against the Wizards and put up 16 points, seven rebounds, and two blocks, and should see a similar workload Monday.

Seraphin contributed 16 points (8-10 FG), seven rebounds, two blocks and one assist across 25 minutes during a 112-107 loss to the Wizards on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Seraphin got hot against his former team, as the 16 points were a season high and marked just the third time this season he has reached double figures in scoring. The two blocks also matched a season high. The performance truly came out of nowhere, as Seraphin had not scored more than two points in a game since Jan. 12.
