James Wiseman Suffers Achilles Injury

Indiana Pacers center James Wiseman (Achilles) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's season opener against the Detroit Pistons. Wiseman exited the contest after only four minutes of action due to what was being considered a calf injury. Now, it's being revealed that Wiseman suffered a ruptured left Achilles tendon in the win. The team hasn't announced it, but Wiseman is expected to miss the rest of the season. The Pacers are also without Isaiah Jackson (groin) right now, so Obi Toppin could see a larger role behind Myles Turner at the center spot. Toppin could be a possible streaming option if Jackson has a lengthy absence.

James Wiseman Won't Return On Wednesday

Indiana Pacers center James Wiseman (calf) won't return during Wednesday's season opener against the Detroit Pistons. Wiseman limped off the court after suffering what looked to be a non-contact injury during the first half of Wednesday's game. This is bad news with Isaiah Jackson (groin) inactive for the season opener. That means, Obi Toppin could see big minutes during the second half of this contest. Wiseman finished with six points and one rebound in four minutes of action. The 23-year-old figures to be the primary backup to Jackson once both players are healthy. Until then, Toppin could be asked to play big minutes for Indiana.

James Wiseman Nursing Groin Issue

Indiana Pacers center James Wiseman is carrying a groin injury that has limited his participation in training camp. According to Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle, the injury happened a couple of weeks ago. It's seen a "minor" injury for Wiseman, so the seven-footer shouldn't miss a lot of time. Carlisle has called Wiseman "a great young prospect," and he gets a fresh start in Indiana after stops in Golden State and Detroit. However, considering the presence of Myles Turner and Isaiah Jackson on the team, Wiseman will likely have a tough time getting regular minutes.
