Rotoworld Player News

Pascal Siakam

IND Forward #43

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Pascal Siakam (knee) recorded 14 points (6-of-14 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, five assists and one steal in Saturday’s loss to the Spurs.

Saturday’s game was Siakam’s first since March 8, so there may have been some concerns about a potential minutes limit. While the production was limited, the fact that Siakam played 29 minutes was encouraging. Will that continue? That’s the big question for fantasy managers who have him rostered, especially those competing for fantasy championships next week. While Indiana’s four-game slate is promising, the uncertainty around how much Siakam will play is a concern.
Jarace Walker

IND Forward #5

Jarace Walker finished Saturday’s loss to the Spurs with 21 points (8-of-10 FGs), four rebounds, four assists, one steal and five three-pointers.

With the Pacers’ rotation being as close to full strength as it has been in quite some time, the offensive end of the floor became a bit more manageable for Walker. Shooting 8-of-10 from the field overall, the third-year forward made five of his seven three-point attempts. Walker’s inefficiency has limited his fantasy value, but minutes have not been an issue and should remain the case for the rest of the season. The Pavers play four games in Week 22, starting with the Magic on Monday.
Andrew Nembhard

IND Guard-Forward #2

Andrew Nembhard accounted for 25 points (8-of-13 FGs, 7-of-9 FTs), one rebound, seven assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Spurs.

Nembhard played 28 minutes on Saturday, and he was effective in his time on the floor. He’s now scored at least 20 points in five of the ten games he’s played in since the All-Star break. Something to watch with Nembhard is the status of rookie Kam Jones. If Jones misses one more game, his contract for next season would only be partially guaranteed. And under those circumstances, that could be when the Pacers decide to give Jones more minutes, possibly at Nembhard’s expense.
Quenton Jackson

IND Guard #29

Andrew Nembhard, Quenton Jackson, Aaron Nesmith, Jarace Walker and Pascal Siakam will start Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

The only holdovers from the lineup that began Wednesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers are Nesmith and Walker. Nembhard and Siakam return, with the latter back after an eight-game absence, and Jackson moves from the bench to the starting lineup. This is the first game the Pacers have played since losing Ivica Zubac to a season-ending rib injury, and they’ll go without a true center to start.
Aaron Nesmith

IND Guard-Forward #23

Aaron Nesmith (ankle), Ben Sheppard (ankle) and Micah Potter (triceps) are available for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

While Nesmith and Sheppard were available for Wednesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers, Potter is back after a two-game absence. Nesmith will take on his usual role within the starting lineup, while Sheppard and Potter will provide depth off the bench.
Andrew Nembhard

IND Guard-Forward #2

Andrew Nembhard, T.J. McConnell and Quenton Jackson are available for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

Nembhard, McConnell and Jackson were all listed as questionable for Saturday’s game. The former will be in the starting lineup, while the other two will look to provide value off the bench.
Pascal Siakam

IND Forward #43

Pascal Siakam (knee) and Obi Toppin (foot) are available for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

Saturday’s game will be Siakam’s first in nearly two weeks, as he last played on March 8. How much he’ll play remains to be seen, but Spicy P does not need to go well into the thirties minutes-wise to provide good fantasy value. As for Toppin, his minutes may be limited, making him a deep-league option at best.
Quenton Jackson

IND Guard #29

Quenton Jackson (calf) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

Jackson has been available for the Pacers’ last three games, most recently logging 20 minutes off the bench in Wednesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers. His opportunities will depend on the availability of Andrew Nembhard and T.J. McConnell, who are also questionable for Saturday’s game. If Nembhard remains out, there should be additional rotation minutes available to Jackson if he plays.
Obi Toppin

IND Forward #1

Obi Toppin (foot) and Micah Potter (triceps) are questionable for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

While Toppin has only missed one of Indiana’s last four games, a March 18 loss to the Trail Blazers, Potter has missed the last two. With Ivica Zubac (ribs) done for the season, Toppin, Potter and Jay Huff take on added importance within the Pacers’ rotation.
Andrew Nembhard

IND Guard-Forward #2

Andrew Nembhard (calf) and T.J. McConnell (hamstring) are questionable for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

Nembhard has missed the Pacers’ last three games with a calf injury, with McConnell replacing him in the starting lineup. Fantasy managers should expect the same if Nembhard can’t play on Saturday, with Quenton Jackson (if available) and Kam Jones serving as the backups. Jackson is also listed as questionable due to a strained right calf.
