The Indiana Pacers needed to know if they could trust Jay Huff to contribute at a high level as they look for a long-term center solution. And so far, he's proving that he can, especially as a backup.
Huff has started 26 of his first 49 games as a Pacer, but it's looking like the team is more interested in seeing what he can do coming off the bench. The Virginia alum has come off the bench in each of the Pacers' last four games, and he is continuing to make the exact impact they were hoping to see.
