LB NBA Mock Draft: Pacers Grab Killa Cameron Payne

*Knock, knock* "Who's there?" "Killa Cam." "Killa who?"

I originally considered going 2011 Liberty Ballers on everyone and making this entire post a lyrical parody of Cam'ron's "Hey Ma," but I'm not Tanner and don't know if I could do the pink fur-wearing member of The Diplomats justice. After the Heat snagged Myles Turner with the 10th-overall pick for the Heat, my first choice for the Pacers here as a more athletic, better-shooting replacement for Roy Hibbert, I needed to look elsewhere.

Despite turning in a productive 2015 campaign and making just $16 million over the next two seasons, Pacers point guard George Hill looks like a player the franchise may try to move on from, continuing to retool the team after its disastrous 2014 meltdown coupled with its desire to deal Hibbert, hoping to build a contender in the weak Eastern Conference around superstar Paul George.
