Jarace Walker

As expected, Walker has had a strong summer. That hasn't always meant efficient shooting, as we saw in this game. However, he is averaging 18.0 points, 7.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.0 steal, 1.0 block and 2.8 triples through their first four games of the summer. Walker should play a larger role this upcoming season for Indiana than he did as a rookie, but with how deep they are, that may not lead to much fantasy production. At this point, he shouldn't be more than a late round dart throw.

The eighth overall pick in last summer's draft, Walker played limited NBA minutes as a rookie. And with the Pacers re-signing Pascal Siakam and Obi Toppin, the path to rotation minutes at power forward appears to be blocked. As a result, he will see plenty of time at the three in Las Vegas. "He's going to start at the 3, but today's game is positionless," Pacers summer league coach Jannero Pargo said. "If he's ahead of the play, we want him dunking it and playing in the paint. If he's not, spacing the floor, handling the ball, playing in pick-and-roll, making decisions off the dribble. In all facets of the game, we want to use him because he's that kind of a player." Regardless of where Walker slots into the lineup once the games count, he'll be part of a loaded Pacers rotation on the wings. While he remains a viable option in dynasty leagues, his value in redraft formats may be limited in 2024-25.
