Out for at least one week Head coach Rick Carlisle relayed Sunday that Nesmith (ankle) will be sidelined for at least one week, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Impact Nesmith was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks due to a right ankle sprain, and his next chance to play seemingly won't be until Sunday, March 1 against the Grizzlies. Kam Jones, Ben Sheppard, Quenton Jackson and Kobe Brown will all have the opportunity to take on expanded roles in Nesmith's absence.

Not playing Sunday Nesmith (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

Impact Nesmith will miss a second consecutive game while tending to a right ankle sprain, and his next chance to play is Tuesday against the 76ers. Ben Sheppard and Kobe Brown should operate in elevated roles in Nesmith's absence.

Pacers vs. Wizards injury report Feb. 20: Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, and more The Indiana Pacers will go head-to-head against the Washington Wizards for the final time this season on Friday night.

Ruled out for Friday Nesmith (ankle) won't play Friday against Washington, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

Impact The Pacers have already decided that Nesmith won't play in the second half of the team's back-to-back after picking up an ankle sprain during the first half of Thursday's matchup. Kobe Brown started the second half in Nesmith's place Thursday and could be in line for a large workload again Friday.

Suffers sprained ankle Nesmith has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Wizards due to a right ankle sprain. He'll finish the night with three points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT),...

Impact Nesmith won't return for the second half after suffering an ankle injury during a collision with teammate Jay Huff. Kobe Brown and Ben Sheppard will presumably be leaned on in the backcourt the rest of the way with Nesmith sidelined.

Good to go Thursday Nesmith (back) is available for Thursday's game against the Wizards, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Impact Nesmith missed Indiana's final outing before the All-Star break to lower-back soreness but will shake off his questionable tag Thursday due to a lumbar sprain. Thursday's contest is the front end of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be surprising if he popped up on Friday's injury report. Over four February appearances, the 26-year-old has averaged 11.8 points and 4.0 rebounds in 29.8 minutes per contest.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Deemed questionable Thursday Nesmith (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Nesmith missed the Pacers final game before the All-Star break due to back pain, and the 26-year-old still hasn't fully recovered from the injury. If he's able to shed his questionable tag to face Washington, Nesmith would likely assume a larger offensive role, considering Pascal Siakam (personal) will be inactive.

FEBRUARY 12 • Associated Press

Resting Wednesday Nesmith (rest) is out Wednesday against the Nets.

Impact Nesmith, Andrew Nembhard, Pascal Siakam and T.J. McConnell will all take a seat for the second half of Indiana's back-to-back set but should be back in action after the All-Star break. Nesmith posted 11 points, eight rebounds and two blocks in 36 minutes during Tuesday's win over the Knicks, and in his absence Wednesday, Kam Jones, Ben Sheppard and Quenton Jackson are all candidates for increased roles.

Pacers snap 4-game skid with 137-134 overtime win against Knicks

Pascal Siakam scored 30 points as the Indiana Pacers snapped a four-game losing streak, defeating the New York Knicks 137-134 in overtime

FEBRUARY 11 • Associated Press

Good to go Tuesday Nesmith (hand) will play in Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

Impact Nesmith missed last Tuesday's loss to Utah -- the second half of a back-to-back set -- due to a left hand strain, though he'll shed his questionable tag and suit up in the front end of this back-to-back set. The 26-year-old swingman has appeared in five of Indiana's last six outings, averaging 14.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists across 30.2 minutes per game over that stretch.

FEBRUARY 10 • Associated Press

Questionable for Tuesday Nesmith is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks with a left hand strain.

Impact The Pacers have a back-to-back in New York first and then Brooklyn on Wednesday, prompting the team to consider giving Nesmith some load management. Ben Sheppard and Jarace Walker could have even more responsibilities on their plates if Nesmith doesn't go Tuesday.

FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go vs. Toronto Nesmith (elbow) is available for Sunday's game against the Raptors.

Impact Nesmith popped up on Saturday's injury report due to a left elbow sprain, but the sixth-year pro has been given the green light by medical staff to play Sunday. He has averaged 16.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.8 threes over 32.2 minutes per game over his last six outings.

FEBRUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Pacers vs. Raptors injury report Feb. 8: Ivica Zubac, Aaron Nesmith, and more The Indiana Pacers will take on the Toronto Raptors in their first game after this year's trade deadline on Sunday.

FEBRUARY 8 • 8POINTS9SECONDS.COM

Iffy for Sunday Nesmith is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Toronto due to a left elbow sprain.

Impact It's a new injury for Nesmith, who played 27 minutes in Friday's loss to the Bucks. If Nesmith isn't cleared to play Sunday, Jarace Walker and Ben Sheppard could see an uptick in playing time. Nesmith is averaging 13.9 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game this season.

FEBRUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Not listed on injury report Nesmith (hand) is not being listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game in Milwaukee.

Impact Nesmith missed Tuesday's loss to the Jazz with a minor hand injury, but he'll be back in action Friday, which may result in Ben Sheppard returning to a reserve role. Nesmith is averaging 13.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.5 triples per game this season.

Milwaukee faces Indiana after overtime win

FEBRUARY 5 • Associated Press

Won't play Tuesday Nesmith will be rested Tuesday against the Jazz.

Impact Nesmith will be held out for the second leg of this back-to-back set, along with several other key players for Indiana. Players such as Johnny Furphy and Ben Sheppard could see heavy run as a result.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Strong production continues Nesmith had 17 points (6-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 33 minutes during Monday's 118-114 loss to the Rockets.

Impact Nesmith continues to play well on both ends of the floor, turning in another serviceable performance. He has now scored double digits in five straight games, connecting on 15 three-pointers in the process. Although his overall ceiling is limited, Nesmith warrants a roster spot in most leagues at this point.
