Pacers sign free-agent center Andrew Bynum

The Indiana Pacers signed free-agent center Andrew Bynum on Saturday, the team announced.

The acquisition of Bynum could deliver the Pacers a formidable bench presence as they try to get past the Miami Heat and reach the NBA Finals.

After a failed partnership with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Bynum was suspended and ultimately traded to the Chicago Bulls, who released the former All-Star center on Jan. 7.
