Jeff McDonald: Pop was very high on Mahinmi today before the game. Says he's been holding his own in practice. Stopped short of saying whether or not they plan to extend him. They've got until Oc.t 31.

If it doesn't work out, he's a pretty attractive trading chip (aka expiring contract) at this time next year

Jeff McDonald: A little birdie told me the Pacers worked out an hour and a half in Indianapolis before bussing to Bloomington. I'd be surprised if they have any sort of juice for this one.
Jeff McDonald: They can keep Hairston for a while into the season before they become guaranteed. Basically delay the decision on him for a few months.
