24. Chuck Person
Chuck Person shot out of the gate in 1986-87, winning the Rookie of the Year Award with an 18.8 Point and 8.3 Rebound campaign. He remained a good scorer and would peak with a 21.6 PPG in his third year in the NBA. Nicknamed "The Rifleman" for his shooting skills, Person was in the top twenty-five times as a Pacer in Three-Point Field Goals, and in his six seasons in an Indiana uniform, he averaged an impressive 19.0 Point per Game Average.
If the rank for Person seems low, Person's ROY season was followed with declining rebounding numbers, and his overall PER of 15.3 makes it hard to elevate him over others on this list.
