29. Indiana Pacers (via Spurs) – Thomas Bryant, F, Indiana

GM: Binford Harrison

The Indiana Pacers didn’t have this pick at the beginning of the NBA Draft, but after trading away Paul George for LaMarcus Aldridge, and this pick, the Pacers are back on the clock.

With this pick, the Pacers will add Thomas Bryant to a frontcourt that also includes T.J. Leaf and Myles Turner.

Bryant is a great player in the paint, when played there, but even better he can hit the mid-range jumper and the three, which is the why the Pacers seem to like their big men. Another great thing about drafting Bryant is that he is an Indiana favorite, he played only a hour south of Indianapolis which, will seem to make the fans happy.
