It’s hard not to feel bad for Joe Young. He was drafted by the Indiana Pacers with the 43rd pick in the 2015 NBA Draft, and it looked like he was going to come in and contribute right away.
In fact, former Pacers head coach Frank Vogel named Young the team’s backup point guard prior to the 2015-2016 season. Young was a DNP-CD in eight of the first ten games of that year.
Young did have a nice little run during his rookie year, though, when George Hill was out due to personal reasons.
