Enrique Freeman - Drafted by Indiana The Pacers selected Freeman with the No. 50 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Impact Freeman spent five years at Akron before declaring for the NBA Draft. In 2023-24, he averaged 18.6 points, 12.9 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 1.6 assists in 35 games. While Freeman has shown impressive rebounding abilities for a 6-foot-7 forward, there is no obvious path for playing time right out of the gate.

Tristen Newton - Drafted by Pacers in second round Newton was selected by the Pacers with the No. 49 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Impact The senior guard from UConn will add a defensive presence to a Pacers team that lacked it throughout the season. He should be a pesky on-ball defender to opposing guards with his 6-foot-3 frame, which includes a 6-foot-7 wingspan. Offensively, it's a mixed bag. Newton's three-ball is inconsistent, and while he's crafty around the rim, he's not much of a vertical athlete, which could cause issues in the NBA. It's not a guarantee he'll be an every night rotation player for Indiana, but he could see spot minutes in certain matchups.
JUNE 27 • ROTOWIRE
Johnny Furphy - Headed to Indiana at No. 35 Furphy was selected by the Pacers with the No. 35 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Impact The Pacers traded up one spot with the Spurs to grab Furphy, who's coming off of a freshman season at Kansas in which he averaged 9.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.3 made threes per game. Furphy is an intriguing blend of size and shooting, having knocked down 35.2 percent of his three-point looks at Kansas. He's unlikely to make much of an impact in Year 1 but could be an interesting developmental project for the Pacers.
