MOST LIKELY TO EXPLODE NEXT TRIMESTER: VICTOR OLADIPO

Victor missed about 11.75 games in the first part of this season. It has not been the most ideal way to start a new year, especially after bursting onto the scene last season when he became a first-time all-star and one of the biggest names in the league. While he’s still leading the team in points per game at 20.5, we know Vic is just dying to have a monster game soon and make his push into the Top 10 Players List by the end of the year. Look for Oladipo to make some major noise from here on out.

Runner-Up: Myles Turner

Next. The Silent Brilliance of Thaddeus Young. dark

It’s been an exciting first trimester as the embryonic Indiana Pacers have developed alongside one another. We’ll keep you posted on each important update in the stages of growth for this proverbial fetus along the way as we inch closer and closer to when the team is birthed into the playoffs and squares off against all the other metaphorical babies that make it out of the womb as well.

Sorry, it got weird again.
