The finishing touches are being made to The St. Vincent Center, the Pacers’ new $50 million practice facility set to open in late August. Despite being about three weeks behind schedule, some staffers have already moved into their new offices and players have been on the new courts.
We know there are two courts with the same design that the team recently debuted. Both courts are aptly named, as well.
Donnie Walsh Court (south end) and Bobby ‘Slick’ Leonard Court (north end).
Banners that are hung at Bankers Life Fieldhouse are also hanging on the south end — division champions, conference champions, plus retired numbers.

“WE ARE ONE” is painted in bold letters on the east end, between the two levels. The weight room is a massive upgrade. The training room is adjacent to the courts. We will (hopefully) learn more about the new facility in the coming weeks.
Every two months (or so), photos will be posted here to keep you updated on the progress made to the facility.
