With their second round pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, the Indiana Pacers drafted another UCLA freshman, taking Ike Anigbogu with the 47th pick. Anigbogu is a risky pick for the Pacers, who are betting on his talents being able to outweigh the fear of a knee injury that kept him out of the start of last season with the Bruins.
That fear led him to drop all the way to 47 despite scouts finding him to otherwise be a first round talent. It makes him a risky (albeit a low risk) choice for the Pacers, who do stand to be rewarded if Anigbogu can find a healthy NBA career.
