Pacers' Johnny Furphy: Practices fully Friday
Furphy (ankle) was active during Friday's practice, Tony East of SI.com reports.
Furphy was back in the mix Friday, and he ran with the second unit of T.J. McConnell, Ben Sheppard, Bennedict Mathurin and Obi Toppin -- Isaiah Jackson (undisclosed) was a limited participant. Furphy will likely struggle to find consistent minutes on the wing surrounded by a plethora of young talent; however, the 19-year-old's return to full-on practice bodes well for his opportunity to impress during the preseason.

Pacers' Johnny Furphy: Headed to Indiana at No. 35
Furphy was selected by the Pacers with the No. 35 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
The Pacers traded up one spot with the Spurs to grab Furphy, who's coming off of a freshman season at Kansas in which he averaged 9.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.3 made threes per game. Furphy is an intriguing blend of size and shooting, having knocked down 35.2 percent of his three-point looks at Kansas. He's unlikely to make much of an impact in Year 1 but could be an interesting developmental project for the Pacers.
