The NBA and Indiana Pacer said the COVID-19 pandemic prevented appropriate planning and execution of the activities envisioned for this February.

Storen rose to executive spots in basketball, football, baseball and tennis during a four-decade career in sports, including time as general manager of the Indiana Pacers and Kentucky Colonels.

Carmel-based CNO Financial Group announced last year it wasn't renewing the naming-rights contract that it held since the arena opened as Conseco Fieldhouse in 1999.

City officials in Indianapolis are signing off on a deal for nearly $300 million in public subsidies toward renovation of the Indiana Pacers' downtown arena.

Gov. Eric Holcomb's office says he signed the bill Monday setting up financing plans for renovation of the Indiana Pacers' arena and construction of a new soccer stadium.

The bill will give the Capital Improvement Board millions of dollars to revamp Bankers Life Fieldhouse, where the Indiana Pacers play, and help build a proposed Indy Eleven soccer stadium.

The deal includes no new taxes or fees, which Indianapolis officials say was a priority for the city.

The deal calls for the Pacers to pay $65 million toward the renovations, which will feature construction of a year-round outdoor plaza in place of an existing parking garage next to the arena.

Indiana health officials say people who had contact with a bat last week during an Indiana Pacers game have possibly been exposed to rabies.

Kelly Krauskopf spent 19 seasons as the top executive of the WNBA's Indiana Fever and helped oversee Indiana's new NBA2K league team.
