Indiana Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle likes what he’s seen from sophomore Ben Sheppard so far this season (7.5 PPG, 54.8% FG, and 50.0% 3-PT are all career-highs).

(via Indiana Pacers):

“He’s just been very consistent. You look at the plus-minus every night: he’s usually a plus just simply because of how hard he plays, how he plays within our system, and he takes the right shots. Defensively: he really busts his butt out there. He’s one of our better rebounders, and that really helps us, too.”
