The Indiana Pacers have the 47th overall pick in the upcoming 2017 NBA Draft. Here are five likely second round players who could land in Indiana on draft day.

Second round picks are rarely counted on to produce, but when a team such as the Indiana Pacers hits on one, it’s an unexpected bonus that can provide a real lift for the franchise.

The Pacers own the 17th choice in the second round, which is No. 47 overall. The odds of obtaining a quality rotation player at this point in the draft are low, but certainly not impossible.

Paul Millsap, Mo Williams, Gerald Wilkins, Vernon Maxwell, Alvin Williams and Tyus Edney were all chosen 47th in their respective drafts, proving that talent can be found this late in the NBA Draft.

The upcoming draft is considered to be very deep by most analysts, which may allow several teams to strike gold in the second round.

Some of these prospects are talented but raw, while others are polished performers who are thought to have minimal upside as NBA players.
