By George Moser
Paul Eboua – VL Pesaro
This 6-foot-8 power forward from Cameroon could be another low risk, high upside talent that also serves to improve the Pacers’ international reputation. Paul Eboua’s resume includes experience playing in Cameroon and various levels of Italian basketball before he declared for the NBA Draft.
If drafted, Paul Eboua would become the third active Cameroonian player in the NBA at the moment, joining Pascal Siakam and Joel Embiid, adding a new degree of competition anytime the Pacers play the Raptors or the Sixers.
As we approach the draft, it seems like a coinflip over whether or not the Pacers will make a trade and move up in the draft. However, if the Pacers stay put, Pacer fans should feel confident with what talent is available with the 54th pick. History has shown us that the Pacers have the culture to develop 2nd round picks into NBA caliber talent.
