Kellogg declared for the NBA draft after his junior year of college, and he was a 1st round draft pick (8th overall) of the Indiana Pacers. In his first season as a member of the NBA All-Rookie Team, he was selected as a member of the NBA All-Rookie Team. He is one of only a handful of rookies in NBA history to record 20 points and ten rebounds a game, with averages of 20.1 points, 10.6 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game. Kellogg finished in second place in NBA Rookie of the Year voting, losing to Terry Cummings, who is also one of the only four players to average 20 points and ten rebounds in a rookie season and did not make the Basketball Hall of Fame. Kellogg was much heralded as the next best NBA superstar after his rookie year. Converse opted for a merchandise deal in order to sell his own Converse "Special K" sneaker. Nevertheless, he only played three seasons and parts of two others for the Pacers before knee injuries forced him to leave. The Pacers were a total of 68–178 during his three full seasons with them.
