Chris Copeland News: Copeland took reps playing small forward and guarding Paul George during Monday's practice, the Indianapolis Star reports. "If there's ways that I can get him on the court, I'm going to try to do that," said Pacers' coach Frank Vogel.

Copeland took reps playing small forward and guarding Paul George during Monday's practice, the Indianapolis Star reports. "If there's ways that I can get him on the court, I'm going to try to do that," said Pacers' coach Frank Vogel.

Copeland has averaged just over five minutes per game this season, but has shot 5-of-6 from behind the three-point line over the Pacers' last two contests, so he may be starting to find his shooting stroke once again. When Copeland is on, he can be devastating at the perimeter, so Vogel is likely exploring any option possible to get the sharp shooter more minutes. Copeland played some small forward during his time at New York, so this transition shouldn't be overly difficult. It will be intriguing to see how he is used in the coming stretch, as the Pacers will play four games in six days starting Wednesday.
