100. <p>Stanley Johnson is one of those guys who will be a work in progress. He has an outstanding upside on defense with all the physical tools necessary to be successful. However, he needs to develop his jump shot a little more and will quickly realize that he won’t be able to get by on his athleticism alone in the NBA.</p> <p>He was a phenomenal player on a solid Arizona team last year, and there is no reason to think his game won’t translate eventually. On the Pacers, he will play behind Paul George initially, but could find himself filling in a shooting guard role eventually if George stays healthy.</p> <p>I would love to see the Pacers draft for talent this year and attempt to do something in the playoffs in the East. Seeing that devastating injury to Paul George happen was tragic for the Pacers this past year, and we all know how thirsty Indiana is for a good Pacers team again.</p>. SF. Arizona. Stanley Johnson. 11. player
