The 2023 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament round of 64 begins this Thursday, March 16th. Several top NBA prospects will engage in competition with their respective schools, giving Pacers fans a great opportunity to catch potential Pacer draft picks in action.
If the NBA season ended today, the Indiana Pacers would own picks 7 (own), 26 (via CLE), 29 (via BOS), and 31 (via HOU) in the 2023 NBA draft. In a draft many describe as generational, the Pacers are poised to make serious noise.
They’ll look to add wing depth and defensive ability, as well as athleticism and shooting where it’s available. These five players fit the needs of the team and project to be available around the Pacers’ current draft positions.
