Hibbert will be featured more in the Pacers' offensive attack this season, Candace Buckner of the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis:

Hibbert and fellow big man David West are both set to see an expanded role in an offense that is without top scores Paul George (leg) and Lance Stephenson. Although head coach Frank Vogel did emphasize Monday that it would be a "team attack," this news only bodes well for Hibbert's counting stats in 2014-15. The big man intends to establish himself early in games, with the hopes of staying out of foul trouble and carrying that momentum to the finish. With less offensive weapons to work with than last season, Hibbert should find himself with plenty of opportunities to score in the post.
