#3 Victor Oladipo

#4 Victor Oladipo

Coming into the league as the 2nd pick overall in the 2013 Draft, Victor Oladipo's career never really took off in Orlando. He was expected to be part of the future with the Magic but things didn't work out that way. Through three seasons, he averaged 15.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.0 assists for the Florida based team.

He eventually became an underrated part of the trade that brought Serge Ibaka from the Oklahoma City Thunder. He more or less averaged the same numbers (15.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.6 assists) with OKC but was quite obviously overshadowed by reigning MVP Russell Westbrook and his triple-double ways.

With the fast-paced offense of the Indiana Pacers, Oladipo seems to have found his place in the league. The Indiana University product is averaging a career-high in nearly every statistical category - 23.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.2 blocks on 48.3% shooting from the field and 44.0% from beyond the arc (Barring his assists average (career-high 4.1), all numbers are career-highs).
