The team is looking for the former Houston Cougar to have a big rookie season, but before that happens, ESPN NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski <a href="https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1681759406680076289?s=20">is reporting</a> that the No. 8 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft just had a “minor procedure” on his elbow.</p><p>“Indiana Pacers F Jarace Walker — the eighth pick in the 2023 NBA Draft — underwent a minor procedure to remove loose bodies in his right elbow, sources tell ESPN,” Woj tweeted. “Walker is expected to be fully recovered for the start of training camp in September.”</p><p>While no NBA fan base wants to hear that their star rookie went under the knife before ever playing a real game, if Walker does truly fully recover by September, this isn’t a big deal at all and is maybe even a good thing.</p><p>It is nerve-wracking for Pacers fans, though, as Jarace Walker was excellent in NBA Summer League this offseason. The 6-foot-7, 240-pound forward was every bit the defensive stopper he was at Houston during his five Summer League games. He also showed some offensive potential, dropping 14.3 points a game to go along with his 7.8 rebounds, 1.3 blocks, and 1.3 steals.</p><p>Walker did <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pacers-biggest-concern-jarace-walker-2023-nba-summer-league-performance" rel="noopener">struggle with offensive efficiency</a>. The big wing shot just 34.3% from the field, 17.9% from 3-point range, and 44.4% from the free throw line.</p><p>Still, Walker will be a huge help to the Pacers, who finished second-to-last in points allowed per game (119.5) last season and had the potential to develop into a true 3-and-D star once he recovers from this Jarace Walker injury and the “minor procedure.”</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The former Houston freshman showed off many of the skills that made him <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/jarace-walker-pacers-no-8-pick-2023-nba-draft" rel="noopener">the No. 8 pick</a> in the NBA Draft. However, while his stat line was mostly good, he was inefficient on the offensive side of the ball, and that could be a problem when the regular season kicks off.</p><h2><b>The Pacers’ biggest concern about Jarace Walker after 2023 NBA Summer League is offensive efficiency</b></h2><p>The Houston Cougars had one of the best defenses in college basketball last season, and at least some of that was thanks to freshman Jarace Walker. The 6-foot-7, 249-pound wing locked down players across positions in college and has the frame and athleticism to do the same at the next level.</p><p>And the Jarace Walker Pacers NBA Summer League performance showed that he can do that.</p><p>Walker looked like a man amongst boys at times during NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. He was athletic and active and long. And his energy and basketball IQ allowed him to shut down his opposite man and wreak havoc as a team defender.</p><p>He also hit the boards hard, averaging 7.8 rebounds per game <a href="https://www.nba.com/2023-summer-league-vegas-player-stats?CF=GP*E*4&amp;dir=D&amp;sort=REB">in Summer League</a> during the four contests he played in. That added nicely to the 1.3 blocks and 1.3 steals he made during the tournament.</p><p>The competition level in Vegas is nowhere near what it is going to be when the Pacers open their season this fall, but Walker has already passed the eye test defensively. He is that guy on the defensive side of the floor, and that will help Indiana a lot, as the Pacers had the second-worst defense in the league last season, allowing 119.5 points per game.</p><p>Defense alone doesn’t get a college prospect in the top 10 of the draft, though. The reason Walker was a top selection is that he does have some offensive potential as well. And if he can turn into a legit 3-and-D player in the NBA, he could be a key piece to a playoff or even a championship team.</p><p>In Vegas, Walker averaged 14.3 points a game, which on the face is encouraging. However, when you dig deeper into the numbers, it’s actually the Pacers’ biggest cause for concern.</p><p>As his franchise’s top draft pick, Walker was the focal point on the organization’s Summer League team. Everything was set up to help develop the incoming rookie, and while he got his points during his 30.1 minutes per game, he was wildly inefficient in doing so.</p><p>Walker does have potential as a shooter. He shot a respectable 34.7% from 3-point range, 46.5% from the field, and 66.3% from the free throw line in college. At NBA Summer League — albeit in a small sample size — he didn’t even approach those numbers. Walker’s shooting percentages in Vegas were 34.3% from the field (on 70 attempts), 17.9% from 3-point range (on 28 attempts), and 44.4% from the line (on just nine attempts).</p><p>Now, Vegas is a place for young players to try things out and work on parts of their games that might not be as developed. So, if that was what Walker was doing, then this isn’t all that concerning.</p><p>However, NBA Summer League is also a place where college prospects show what their game might look like at the next level for the first time as well, and if that’s what was happening, it’s more concerning.</p><p>The Jarace Walker Pacers NBA Summer League showing did illustrate some of the predraft concerns about his offensive game. Walker is built like an NFL defensive end, yet instead of bullying his way to the basket, he too often settles for midrange jumpers. And when a dunk or a layup isn’t available, he needs to dish it off to one of his teammates. On this second note, he did do a better job in Vegas than he did in college. At Houston, he averaged just 1.8 assists per game, but in Summer League, he dropped 3.3 assists.</p><p>As for his shooting range, it will take some time and a lot of reps to extend his range to the NBA distance. So, it’s not awful that he got up a lot of threes during these offseason games.</p><p>In the end, Walker is who we all thought he could be defensively, and that is the No. 1 concern for the Pacers and Pacers fans. But the offensive development is worth keeping an eye on as the team starts its preseason in late September/early November. And if that ends up coming through, Walker could be the 3-and-D terror the team drafted him to be.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Of course, one of the standout performers <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pacers-2023-nba-draft-class" rel="noopener">was their first-round pick</a>, Jarace Walker. Here are four reactions to his performance in the game.</p><p>Walker, of course, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/jarace-walker-pro-player-comparisons-top-2023-nba-draft-pick" rel="noopener">is a solidly-built rookie</a> who can play both the power forward and center positions. Thanks to his physical attributes, which include a 7’3 wingspan, he has the size and strength to be a force on both ends of the court. He has shown great defensive potential, with the ability to disrupt the opposition’s rhythm and contest shots at the rim. He is also a capable passer and has shown some scoring ability.</p><p>In the Pacers’ lineup, Walker could be a supplemental shot blocker next to Myles Turner while also providing some wing-stopper capabilities. He could also be a valuable asset on offense, making plays for his teammates and using his size and athleticism to finish strong at the rim. Overall, Walker’s versatility and potential <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/jarace-walker-pacers-no-8-pick-2023-nba-draft" rel="noopener">make him a valuable addition</a> to the Pacers’ roster.</p><h2><b>Game Summary</b></h2><p>The Pacers opened their 2023 NBA Summer League campaign with <a href="https://www.nba.com/game/ind-vs-was-1522300014/box-score" rel="noopener">a 91-83 victory</a> over the Wizards. The Pacers retained their lead for the final six minutes of the game, with standout offensive efforts from Bennedict Mathurin and Isaiah Jackson. Mathurin led the Pacers with 27 points, five rebounds, and three triples. Jarace Walker scored just eight points, but he had a fantastic defensive performance. The rookie tallied three steals and three blocked shots. The Wizards flipped the script in the third quarter, outscoring the Pacers 32-13, but their comeback fell short. The Pacers are now 1-0 in Summer League play.</p><p>Now let’s look at some reactions from the Las Vegas Summer League games of Indiana Pacers rookie Jarace Walker.</p><h2><b>1. Defensive Dominance</b></h2><p>Walker’s defensive prowess was on full display in the game. He made life difficult for the Wizards’ offense. He was a force on the ball, using his size and strength to disrupt the opposition’s rhythm. Walker also showed great awareness off the ball, making timely rotations and contesting shots at the rim. His defensive impact was a major reason why the Pacers were able to secure the victory.</p><h2><b>2. Passing Ability</b></h2><p>While Walker’s defense was the highlight of his performance, he also impressed with his passing ability. He showed great vision and creativity, making several impressive assists that caught the eye of the fans and commentators alike. His ability to make plays for his teammates is a valuable asset that the Pacers will look to utilize in the future. Walker ended the game with five assists.</p><h2><b>3. Physicality</b></h2><p>One of the most striking things about Walker’s game is his physicality. He is built like a linebacker, and he uses his size and strength to his advantage on both ends of the court. He is not afraid to mix it up in the paint. Walker also has the athleticism to finish strong at the rim. He also used his size and strength to grab a total of 13 rebounds. Now that’s greatly impressive.

Room for Improvement</b></h2><p>While Walker had an impressive debut, there is still room for improvement in his game. He had a couple of turnovers that he would want to clean up. In addition, he could be more consistent with his jump shot. However, these are minor quibbles in what was an otherwise great performance. Walker showed why he was a first-round pick, and he gave Pacers fans plenty to be excited about.</p><h2><b>Looking Ahead</b></h2><p>Overall, Jarace Walker’s debut was a resounding success. He showed why he was such a highly touted prospect. He didn’t try to do too much, and he excelled at so many aspects of the game. Walker also gave the Pacers a glimpse of what he can bring to the team in the future. He may not have scored in double-digits, but he did affect the game in so many other ways. If he can continue to develop his game, he could be a major contributor to the Pacers for years to come.</p><p>Indiana has high hopes for its young talents, including rookie Jarace Walker, as they head into the 2023-24 NBA season. Walker has already made an impression in the NBA Summer League, showing off his passing ability, rebounding, and defensive potential.

With the potential for continued growth and development, the Pacers’ young talent could be a major factor in the team’s success in the upcoming season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
