    Roy Hibbert wants to keep playing basketball in Indiana, and the Pacers intend to make their All-Star center happy.

    It will just come down to dollars and sense.

    "Of course this isn't going to be his last time in Indy, he's not going anywhere," Pacers coach Frank Vogel said with a smile shortly Thursday before playing in the Caroline Symmes celebrity softball game, which benefits the Indiana Children's Wish Fund.

    Hibbert is one of six Indiana players who could become a free agent July 1, and at 7-foot-2, he could become one of the hottest commodities on the market.

    But because he will only be a restricted free agent, the Pacers can match any other offer to keep him.

    That's what the Pacers are trying to figure out.
