Indiana Pacers: 2017-18 player grades for Bojan Bogdanovic

Highlights

When you have a player like Bojan Bogdanovic, the highlights will be lots of fun; he can go on a scoring rampage on any given night.

With opponents targeting guys like Darren Collison, Victor Oladipo and Myles Turner, they may not be game-planning to silence Bogdanovic. When they slipped up in that coverage, or if he simply got hot, he made them pay. With his length and quick release, it’s no surprise he ranked as an elite 3-point shooter when being guarded tightly.

Additionally, he shot an impressive 45.7 percent from 3-point range when wide open.

A pair of his impressive scoring explosions came in November, when he scored 26 points on back-to-back nights in Florida, netting six and five 3-pointers against the Miami Heat and Orlando Magic, respectively.

He also went nuts for 29 points on five 3-pointers and two steals against his ex-team, the Washington Wizards, back in February. In March, he dropped 28 points and grabbed six boards in a win against a retooled Los Angeles Clippers team.

Finally, and perhaps most impressively, he sealed a win for the Pacers in April against the defending champion Golden State Warriors with a 28-point, six 3-pointer effort.
