Indiana Pacers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Indiana Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin (toe) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Mathurin is coming off a good performance on Sunday but carries a toe injury into this contest. The Pacers are extremely banged up with a handful of players on the injury report. The absence of Mathurin would likely mean more run for Buddy Hield during Tuesday's game. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Tuesday for another update on his status.

There's optimism that Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) will return to the lineup versus the Boston Celtics on Tuesday. Haliburton, who was selected as a starter in the upcoming All-Star Game, has missed 10 of Indy's past 11 games with a strained left hamstring. Head coach Rick Carlisle said on Sunday that Haliburton is day-to-day and expected to practice on Monday, so the hyper-efficient 23-year-old's return to the floor is drawing near. Andrew Nembhard has averaged 12.5 points, 6.5 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.8 three-pointers across 11 games for the Pacers without Haliburton this season and remains worth holding in fantasy leagues until Haliburton officially gets the green light.

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) remains out on Sunday against Memphis. He's been battling a hamstring issue, keeping him off the floor for nine of the Pacers' last 10 games. Fortunately, the 23-year-old will practice on Monday, so he's moving in the right direction. But there's a good chance he'll miss Indiana's upcoming games in Boston and New York, at the very least. Nonetheless, T.J. McConnell (personal) could continue to see more work until Haliburton returns. However, McConnell may not suit up versus the Grizzlies, meaning Andrew Nembhard may handle most of the duties at the one spot.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) won't play on Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 27-year-old had scored at least 20 points in three of his four appearances ahead of Friday's win over the Phoenix Suns. However, he'll now miss Sunday's game because of back spasms. With Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) still out, Pascal Siakam, Buddy Hield, and Andrew Nembhard could lead the way offensively, giving all three men added value in all fantasy setups.

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam posted his first triple-double of the season and the first of his Pacers' career on Thursday, recording 26 points, 13 rebounds, and 10 assists in the team's 134-122 win over the 76ers. Siakam trailed only Joel Embiid in points during the game and led all players in rebounds and assists. With Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) out, the newly acquired former All-Star led the charge in a wire-to-wire win for Indiana at home. The 29-year-old is averaging 19.5 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 6.0 assists per game in four games with the Pacers.
