Bojan Bogdanovic
The Indiana Pacers signed Bojan Bogdanovic as a free agent in 2017, following his stopover with the Washington Wizards, who acquired him from the Brooklyn Nets at the trade deadline that year.
Bogdanovic is a proven scorer on the wing, averaging 14.6 points per game in his career and at least 17 per game in the last three seasons. His 3-point shooting would be a great addition to the Pacers’ offense as well, as he has connected on 39.3 percent of 3-point attempts in his career.
Bogdanovic is another logical fit to replace Doug McDermott if he is scooped up by another team in free agency. They have similar skill sets, as both are great scorers that don’t offer much on the defensive side of the ball.
The Utah Jazz is also reportedly looking into trading away Bogdanovic and Joe Ingles in hopes of upgrading their roster around Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert.
