Updated 2022 NBA Draft Big Board for the Indiana Pacers

NBA Draft Big Board for the Indiana Pacers (6-4)

6. Shaedon Sharpe, Kentucky (SG)

Shaedon Sharpe could easily land in a higher draft spot, but the Indiana Pacers should probably not have him as high on their priority lists given their more pressing needs in the frontcourt. Still, should they get a lower selection, Sharpe should be picked as long as he remains on the board.

5. Jaden Ivey, Purdue (SG)

Jaden Ivey’s fiery scoring could make him the favored selection for teams in need of a backcourt catalyst. And while he could certainly thrive next to Tyrese Haliburton, having Chris Duarte and their veteran cogs in the backcourt makes him more of a luxury than a necessity for Indiana.

4. Keegan Murray, Iowa (PF)

Keegan Murray has been the fastest riser in most mock drafts, and that certainly holds stronger credence with the Pacers. Easily the best frontcourt prospect outside the undisputed top-three, Murray would be a tremendous consolation for Indiana with his extraordinary versatility.
