Danny Granger's Milestone Friday

[From the FanPosts, goodlucksaturday notes an 3-ball milestone within reach on Friday for Danny Granger. Only 2055 to go to reach Reggie! - TL]

So assuming Danny Granger plays on Friday, which I don't think he should, but I imagine he will anyway, he'll have a shot at becoming a #2 all-time franchise leader, which means quite a bit considering how far ahead Reggie Miller is in most categories.

The record? Three point field goals. Granger has currently made Slick Leonard and the Pacer faithful exclaim "BOOM BABY!" 505 times, just one shy of Bill Keller's 506, which was recorded from 1970-1976.

Though Keller's three point numbers would likely be higher as he exited the ABA (as the ABA exited itself) at the age of 28, coming off of his most prolific season going long, the number is 506.

If Granger doesn't move into second place tomorrow against the Wizards, it certainly won't be for a lack of trying. Granger is averaging 10 three point attempts per game and has 40 on the year, currently second in the NBA with Rasheed Wallace (who has played two more games than Granger), both seven behind Danillo Gallinari, who sits at 47 after five games.

Granger will also get his 10,000th minute of NBA and Pacer action if he plays Friday in the first quarter of the first quarter. He'll become the 30th player to log 10,000 minutes as a Pacer, and the first since Jamaal Tinsley in 2007.

At least a little bit more worth seeing for the team's already busy game against the Wizards tomorrow night.
