22. Indiana Pacers - Kylan Boswell, G, Arizona

With one of the most explosive offenses in NBA history, the Indiana Pacers have taken the league by storm this season as one of the most surprising teams in the Eastern Conference. The scary part is that they're just beginning to learn how to play winning basketball. The Pacers are only going to get better as we get deeper into the season and closer to the NBA Playoffs. Heading into the 2024 NBA Draft, the Pacers could target a Kylan Boswell late in the first round.

Even as a somewhat undersized guard, at 6-foot-2, Boswell has been red-hot to start his sophomore season at Arizona. Through the first few games with the Wildcats this season, Boswell is averaging 13 points, four assists, and three rebounds per game on a scorching 54 percent shooting from 3-point range.

If the Pacers are looking for more explosive depth in the backcourt, Boswell can be a fit for an Indiana team that is looking to take the next step in their progression. A lot of who they could target in the draft will depend on how the rest of the season unfolds for Indiana and whether they make another big move at the NBA Trade Deadline.
