Johnny Davis arrived in Indiana in a trade from Portland, and he would embark on the most productive seasons of his career.  In his first year with the Pacers, he would post an 18.3 Points per Game Average, which would be the best of his career.  His best year would be his second one in Indiana (1980-81), where he had a 14.4 PPG with a career-highs in Assists (6.3) and Steals (1.3).  That year he was ninth in Assists per Game.

Wayman Tisdale was drafted 2^nd Overall in 1985, and he was a good player, but he sometimes gets maligned as there were players who were chosen after him (Charles Barkley, Chris Mullin, and Karl Malone) who would go on to have Hall of Fame careers.  Looking back, you can see why the Pacers chose him as he was a three-time First Team All-American at the University of Oklahoma, and he did have a good career in the NBA, which of course, began in Indiana.

Chris Mullin went to five All-Star Games when he was with the Golden State Warriors, and he was a member of the 1992 U.S. Olympic Dream Team.  Those facts may have occurred years before he arrived in Indiana, but he did not become a Pacer with his gas tank on "E."

Brad Miller only played 101 Games for the Indiana Pacers, but in the year and a half he played in the Hoosier State, he was one of the better Centers in Association.
