The Shooting Guard was drafted by the Pacers 40th overall in 2010, and he rode the pine for his first two years before he became the starting Shooting Guard in his third season (2012-13). He would have what was perceived to be a breakout year in 2013-14, where he averaged 13.2 Points and 7.2 Rebounds per Game.
After turning down an offer from Indiana, Stephenson would then test the free agent market, and he would sign with the Charlotte Hornets. Save for a decent season with the Memphis Grizzlies in 2015-16, Stephenson never had another good season. He would return a seocnd time for one more year with the Pacers in 2017-18, where he had a bench role, and again for 40 Games in 2021-22, again coming off in a reserve capacity.Overall, Stephenson played 338 Games for the Pacers, averaging 9.1 Points per Game.
