8p9s Roundtable: Best and Worst Draft Picks in Pacers History

Tim Donahue: Well, Reggie, of course. Simply too foundational to the Indiana Pacer NBA franchise to have any real competition. In the non-Reggie division? It really depends on what you mean by “best.” Paul George (#10 in 2010) will probably become the best player the Pacers drafted. Chuck Person (#4 in 1986) was a great against-the-grain pick by Donnie Walsh, helping the Pacers move beyond the disastrous early ’80s. Antonio Davis (#45 in 1990) was probably the best value pick made by the Pacer front office.

Justin Ochoa: And with the 11th pick of the 1987 NBA Draft, the Indiana Pacers select Reggie Miller; University of California, Los Angeles.
