Jeremy Lamb, who spent three seasons with Indiana Pacers, announces retirement from basketball
Jeremy Lamb, a veteran guard who spent three seasons with the Indiana Pacers, announced his retirement from basketball on Wednesday.
Lamb, who was in the NBA for 10 seasons in total after being a lottery pick in 2012, is still just 32-years old but has battled injuries of late. He played for the Sacramento Kings during his last NBA stop in 2021-22 but hasn’t been on a roster since.
“Basketball has been good to me throughout my entire life, so this decision didn’t come easy, but I have decided to retire from the game that has given me everything,” Lamb wrote on Instagram this morning. “Now, it’s time to catch another dream!” he concluded.
The UConn product played for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Charlotte Hornets, Pacers, and Kings during his career. His best season came for the Hornets in 2018-19 — he averaged over 15 points per game that year.
He helped the Thunder reach the Western Conference Finals during his second season. Lamb joined Indiana in 2019 and was an immediate starter due to an injury to Victor Oladipo. But not long after Oladipo returned to action, Lamb tore his ACL and MCL, and his abilities never recovered.
He was able to return the following season at a lower level of play. During his time with the Pacers, Lamb averaged 10.0 points and 3.5 rebounds per game across 121 appearances. He was eventually a part of the trade that sent Domantas Sabonist to Sacramento and Tyrese Haliburton to Indiana.
“I also want to acknowledge my teammates, who have made this experience unforgettable. To my
coaches, thank you for your guidance and belief in me. Your impact on my life goes beyond the court,” Lamb said. He played for three different coaches (Nate McMillan, Nate Bjorkgren, and Rick Carlisle) in Indiana.
Lamb averaged just over 10 points per game in his 573 NBA appearances.
KOSCIUSKO COUNTY, Ind. (WSBT) — It’s fair season and a new law uncorks adult beverage sales!
The new Indiana law will go into effect July 1st, making it legal to sell alcohol at county fairs.
The Kosciusko County Fair is set to kick off in just a few weeks and Indiana is officially allowing alcohol to be sold.
The law is bringing back something that’s not necessarily new to this fair.
Here’s what you need to know
The new law will go into effect on July 1st. It officially allows county fairs to apply for fee-free permits to sell alcohol.
Officials with the Kosciusko County Fair say they are participating this year. They are implementing the same guidelines they used when they sold alcohol just at grandstand events.
The difference now is, you can walk around the grounds with your drink. But strict guidelines will be in place for purchasing a drink.
“Actually, we’ve never had any issues. Because we card everybody, so we take that seriously. We also got the ID guides so we can identify the different types of IDs,” said Sheal Dirck, Treasurer of Kosciusko County Fair.
The Kosciusko County Fair already have guidelines in place, so this was an easy transition for the fair.
They will be the only vendors selling alcohol, which will make it easier to control distribution.
The sales will also bring in more revenue.
“Hopefully it allows to keep our ticket prices where they are because right now, insurance, utilities and everything else is going sky high and it’s hard to make ends meet,” said Dirck.
However, some fairs cannot participate because of the July 1st start date, like the Pulaski County Fair, which is going on right now. Pulaski County officials said it is on the agenda for next year. Whereas other fairs are choosing to sit this year out.
“We wanted not spend some time to, to see what that really means for us. It was not a decision we wanted to rush into. But we are happy for the option of it,” said Shelly Steury, GM of Elkhart County 4H Fairgrounds.
Leaders at the St. Joseph County and Elkhart County Fairs said neither of them are selling alcohol.
The Kosciusko County Fair is the only fair that will sell alcohol in our area this year.
