The Indiana Pacers 2009–10 were led by Danny Granger’s scoring, with Roy Hibbert establishing himself as the team’s primary interior presence through rebounding and efficient finishing. T.J. Ford and Earl Watson shared playmaking responsibilities, while Troy Murphy contributed versatile frontcourt production with scoring, rebounding, and floor spacing. The roster emphasized balanced offensive contributions and solid rebounding, but its statistical profile suggested defense was not among its strongest attributes.

| Danny Granger | Starter/Star | 36.7 | High | 24.1 | 5.5 | 2.8 | 2.3 | 91.34 | Operating as the clear offensive centerpiece, Granger carried a heavy scoring load on a rebuilding roster. He mixed high-volume perimeter shooting with aggressive drives, finishing among the NBA’s leading scorers while regularly drawing the opponent’s top wing defender. | NBA All-Star (2009), 2010 NBA Three-Point Contest Participant |
| Troy Murphy | Starter/Star | 32.6 | High | 14.6 | 10.2 | 2.1 | 1.5 | 74.18 | Stretching the floor from power forward, Murphy gave Indiana a rare combination of rebounding and outside shooting. His double-double production and ability to pull big men away from the rim were central to the Pacers’ offensive spacing. | NBA Double-Double Leaderboard Contender |
| Roy Hibbert | Starter/Star | 25.1 | Medium | 11.7 | 5.7 | 2.0 | 2.0 | 51.79 | Anchoring the paint in his second season, Hibbert showed steady growth as a low-post scorer and rim protector. His size altered shots consistently, and Indiana increasingly relied on him to stabilize the interior. | NBA Rookie-Sophomore Challenge (2010) |
| Brandon Rush | Starter/Star | 30.4 | Medium | 9.4 | 4.2 | 1.4 | 1.5 | 39.81 | Functioning mostly as a 3-and-D wing, Rush provided valuable floor spacing while often taking difficult defensive assignments. His 41.1% mark from three made him one of Indiana’s most efficient perimeter shooters. | — |
| T.J. Ford | Key Contributor | 25.3 | Medium | 10.3 | 3.2 | 3.8 | 1.1 | 42.09 | Working as an attacking point guard, Ford pushed tempo and looked to create off the dribble whenever healthy. Injuries limited his availability, but his quickness still added a different dimension to the backcourt. | — |
| Dahntay Jones | Key Contributor | 24.9 | Medium | 10.2 | 3.0 | 2.0 | 1.0 | 37.42 | Bringing physical defense and downhill aggression, Jones filled a complementary role around Indiana’s primary scorers. He attacked gaps, drew contact, and supplied toughness on the wing. | — |
| Earl Watson | Starter/Star | 29.4 | Medium | 7.8 | 3.0 | 5.1 | 1.5 | 42.11 | More of a table-setter than a scorer, Watson organized the offense and helped younger teammates find quality looks. His passing and defensive activity were often more impactful than his modest scoring numbers suggest. | — |
| Tyler Hansbrough | Key Contributor | 17.6 | Medium | 8.5 | 4.8 | 1.0 | 0.9 | 35.11 | Playing with trademark energy as a rookie, Hansbrough attacked the glass and lived at the foul line. The jumper was still developing, but his effort level consistently stood out in limited minutes. | NBA All-Rookie Second Team (2010), NBA Rookie Challenge Participant (2010) |
| Mike Dunleavy | Key Contributor | 22.2 | Medium | 9.9 | 3.5 | 1.5 | 0.8 | 36.27 | Returning from injury setbacks, Dunleavy operated as a secondary shooter and ball mover rather than a primary creator. His feel for the game helped steady lineups despite reduced athleticism. | — |
| A.J. Price | Bench | 15.4 | Medium | 7.3 | 1.6 | 1.9 | 0.7 | 25.30 | Used as a scoring-minded reserve guard, Price looked comfortable pulling up from deep and creating his own shot. His role was straightforward: provide offensive spark off the bench. | NBA Rookie Challenge Participant (2010) |
| Luther Head | Bench | 17.3 | Medium | 7.6 | 1.7 | 1.5 | 0.6 | 24.64 | Sliding into a reserve shooting role, Head supplied perimeter shooting and veteran experience. Most of his offensive value came from spot-up opportunities and floor spacing. | — |
| Jeff Foster | Bench | 15.9 | Low | 3.1 | 5.1 | 1.3 | 0.5 | 20.00 | Rarely featured as a scorer, Foster remained one of the roster’s most dependable rebounders. His screens, positioning, and hustle work continued to influence games beyond the box score. | — |
| Josh McRoberts | Bench | 12.5 | Low | 4.3 | 3.0 | 1.0 | 0.8 | 18.20 | An athletic reserve big, McRoberts flashed passing ability and mobility that hinted at a larger future role. He contributed in short bursts without needing plays called for him. | — |
| Solomon Jones | Bench | 13.0 | Low | 4.0 | 2.8 | 0.6 | 1.0 | 16.80 | Serving as frontcourt depth, Jones brought energy, rebounding, and occasional shot blocking. His minutes fluctuated, but he generally provided serviceable interior defense. | — |
| Travis Diener | Bench | 6.3 | Low | 0.8 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 0.8 | 6.20 | Appearing in only a handful of games, Diener handled limited backup guard duties. His season was too brief to establish a consistent role within the rotation. | — |
| TEAM TOTALS | — | 240.3 | — | 100.8 | 41.5 | 21.1 | 12.5 | 561.26 | Indiana finished 32-50 during a transition year built around Granger’s scoring, Murphy’s double-double production, and the development of younger pieces such as Hibbert, Rush, Hansbrough, and Price. | — |
