The news of the uncertain fate for the coach was revealed by ESPN reporter Adrian Wojnarowski. “Amid a year of difficulties with players and staff, Indiana Pacers coach Nate Bjorkgren’s future with the franchise is uncertain as the regular season nears an end,” Wojnarowski revealed. “The Pacers are 30-34 and in ninth place in the Eastern Conference.”
