The Illinois native duo of RayJ Dennis (Oswego East) and Cam Christie (Rolling Meadows) have put on an offensive show as of late for San Diego Clippers.

That will change as Dennis has agreed to a two-way contract with the Indiana Pacers per Michael Scotto.

Dennis has averaged 16.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.6 steals for the Clippers in the G League.

Beat reporter Tony East said Dennis previously worked out for Indiana back on June 20 before the NBA Draft.

Also on the move is Chasson Randle (Rock Island).

Randle was a part of a three-team trade back on December 30. Randle was acquired by the Stockton Kings. Drew Timme went to the Long Island Nets and Amari Bailey was sent to the Iowa Wolves.
