Former Indiana point guard Yogi Ferrell will be among six players to participate in a pre-draft workout with the Indiana Pacers on Friday.

“(It) should be a really fun experience," Ferrell said. "To be right back at home, trying to work out for a team I watched growing up, with Reggie Miller and all those guys, I think it’ll be something special.”

Joining Ferrell will be Kyle Collinsworth (Brigham Young), Cheick Diallo (Kansas), Brice Johnson (North Carolina), Georges Niang (Iowa State) and Ante Zizic (Croatia).

Ferrell, IU's all-time assists leader, most recently worked out for the New Orleans Pelicans.

IU Insider Zach Osterman recently wrote that despite not being invited to the NBA draft combine and being regarded as too short to play in the NBA, Ferrell has been working hard to impress scouts and coaches.
