Stephen Jackson has agreed to a six-year, $39 million contract with the Indiana Pacers, a source close to Jackson told ESPN Insider's Chad Ford.

 

 

 

 

The Pacers will use their entire mid-level exception to sign Jackson. Indiana has been looking for some athleticism and perimeter shooting in their backcourt and Jackson, who has championship experience with the Spurs, can provide both.

 

 

Jackson averaged 18.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game last season in his only campaign as a Hawk. That followed his breakout season in San Antonio, where he averaged 11.8 points per game for the 2002-03 NBA champions.

 

 

Jackson's forthcoming signing may trigger another deal for the Pacers. The team has been trying for weeks to move Al Harrington in an effort to clear enough money under the luxury tax threshold to sign a free agent. With Jackson agreeing to terms, Harrington likely will be moved to a team a first-round pick and enough cap room to swallow his deal.

you dont figure out what he is making that way genius.

 

 

 

 

jackson will make 5.1 this year and get 10% raises every successive year....it equals out to average 6.5 but he wont make that next year.

 

 

learn the CBA.

i already know the collective bargain agreement and have for a while.anyways that was to much for jackson and to many years
