Andrew Nembhard DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard scored a team-high 23 points in Sunday's win over the Cavaliers. The 25-year-old also logged 37 minutes, more than anyone else on the roster, while missing only one of his six tries from behind the arc. While Nembhard struggled versus Cleveland during the regular season, averaging 8.5 points in four meetings, DFS managers must keep him on the radar on Tuesday night after such a strong effort.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's tilt against the Detroit Pistons. He is forced to come out of the lineup due to a back problem. T.J. McConnell, Ben Sheppard, and Johnny Furphy have an opportunity to get more playing time in the backcourt with Nembhard out. McConnell, who averages 10.1 points and 4.5 assists for the season, stands out as the best fantasy option among these three players.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against Boston. He will sit out the second night of a back-to-back for left knee injury management purposes. Nembhard went off for a season-high 23 points in 29 minutes on Thursday versus Oklahoma City. Ben Sheppard might be Nembhard's replacement in the starting unit on Friday, with T.J. McConnell picking up extra minutes off the bench. Sheppard typically isn't productive during his time on the court. He had only five points with a pair of assists, and one steal in 22 minutes on Thursday. McConnell is a much better fantasy option.
