Pacers Rookie Kam Jones Arrested After Police Chase

Why this matters: The arrest of a promising rookie like Kam Jones can impact team morale and public perception. It also raises questions about his immediate future with the Pacers and his potential role in the G-League affiliate, the Noblesville Boom.
