Armed with the No. 6 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, the Indiana Pacers held a pre-draft workout earlier this week with Badgers sophomore guard Johnny Davis, according to IndyStar beat writer James Boyd.
Davis, who was the Big Ten Player of the Year, Lute Olson National Player of the Year, and a consensus first-team All-American averaged 19.7 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 steals in 31 games for Wisconsin last season.
Standing at 6-foot-5, 196-pounds, the Badgers star appears well-positioned to be a lottery selection, which will make him the first Wisconsin player drafted that high since Frank Kaminsky back in 2015.
The 2022 NBA Draft will take place on June 23.
