BOOK IT
Veteran forward Trevor Booker indicated on his Twitter account that he's headed to the Pacers - even if the team is not yet ready to announce a deal. Booker was expected to sign with Indiana when he clears waivers after being released by the Philadelphia 76ers, who needed to clear a roster spot for former Hawks forward-center Ersan Ilyasova. Booker tweeted "Indy, let's work!!!!" on Wednesday afternoon.
Asked about Booker, Pacers coach Nate McMillan said, "I can't talk about it."
