Indiana Pacers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports that Indiana Pacers forward/centerPascal Siakam(elbow) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. Siakam missed only his second game of the season on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets when he had to depart the lineup due to an elbow injury.The star forward has only scored 20 points once in his last seven outings. However, having Siakam return after a one-game absence should provide fantasy managers with a valuable asset for Tuesday's game.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (elbow) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Siakam missed only his second game of the season on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets when he had to depart the lineup due to an elbow injury. Obi Toppin moved into the starting unit and had a big game with 22 points. He will likely keep hold of the spot if Siakam does not return on Tuesday. It's a juicy matchup against the league's weakest defense, so Toppin may do even better than his performance on Sunday.

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (elbow) will miss Sunday's matchup in Denver. He had a monster outing on Friday in Utah, finishing with 22 points, four blocks, and three steals. However, the former Raptor won't suit up because of right olecranon bursitis. As a result, Obi Toppin, who had 34 points and 10 rebounds in his only start of the year on March 17 (Siakam's last absence) is worth considering for fantasy purposes.

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (elbow) has received a questionable status due to elbow bursitis and may not suit up against the Utah Jazz on Friday. If there's ever a good time to get a rest game, the Pacers would likely choose this one against a banged-up and last-place Jazz team. So, if Siakam doesn't suit up, while Aaron Nesmith (ankle) and Bennedict Mathurin (calf) are both questionable, they could be very thin in the frontcourt. Obi Toppin, Jarace Walker, and T.J. McConnell could all see a big bump in minutes and usage. In their last game, Walker played the most out of the three and posted 10 points, six rebounds, and two assists.

Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (ankle) is dealing with some ankle soreness and has been listed on the injury report as questionable for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. Since his big injury stretch towards the beginning of the season, Nesmith has only missed one game since January 14. In their last game against the Charlotte Hornets, he registered 16 points, three rebounds, one assist, one steal, and shot 3-for-9 from deep. If he's unable to play, Obi Toppin could see some more minutes if Bennedict Mathurin (calf) gets ruled out as well.
