Statement from Pacers owners Herb Simon, Steve Simon and the Simon Family:<\/p>\n
\u201cPacers fans will remember Bobby \u2018Slick\u2019 Leonard as the spirit of our franchise. With a charisma, intensity, and wit to match his nickname, Slick made us champions. He was our biggest fan and our most loving critic, and he personified Pacers basketball for generations of Hoosier families. Most importantly, though, Slick and Nancy are our family, and his passing leaves an unfillable void in the hearts of everyone associated with this organization. We keep the entire Leonard family in our prayers, and we recognize and honor Slick for what he meant to our state both on and off the court.\u201d<\/p>\n
