The Pacers have exercised their option on point guard Jamison Brewer, keeping him under contract for next season.

Brewer, a second-round draft pick in 2001, has played in just 23 games over the past two seasons, but showed promise last season. Playing in 10 games for an average of eight minutes, he averaged 2.2 points and 1.8 assists.

Brewer, the 41st pick overall, played two seasons at Auburn before entering the draft. He turns 23 in November.
