With the NBA draft just over a week away, the Pacers held their highest-profile workout of the pre-draft process on Wednesday. Today’s group was made up of Chris Duarte, Corey Kispert, Ziaire Williams, Sam Hauser, Cam Thomas and McKinley Wright. The Pacers have three picks in the draft on July 29, Nos. 13, 54 and 60, and Duarte, Kispert and Williams are all projected to be selected between the lottery and mid-first round.
Kispert made the most of his final season at Gonzaga. His scoring jumped five points to 18.6, he averaged a whole extra rebound to put him at five per game and he chipped in 1.8 assists and a steal per contest. Kispert has been called the best shooter in the draft by many scouts, and being less than three percent from a 50/40/90 year makes it hard to disagree. Kispert returned to Gonzaga for his senior year after initially declaring for the draft last year, and it seems to have paid off for him.

“I love that we are starting at home,” he said Wednesday. “I can’t wait to hear that place rock.”
During a virtual lunch interview hosted by Indiana Sports Corp, the two-time Pro-Bowler, a 2008 graduate of Cathedral High School, talked about what Indianapolis means to him, his best memories of his football career, and what he’s learned from being around different members of the Colts organization.
Less than a week before the start of training camp, Doyle said he was eager to get the season underway. He applauded the selfless nature of the team’s offense, saying it’s what distinguishes the Colts from other teams.
