Ruled out Monday Nesmith (foot) has been ruled out Monday against the Nets, Wilson Moore of IndyStar Sports reports.
Impact Nesmith will be unavailable for a second consecutive game due to a sore right foot, but he'll have a few days to recover before the Pacers take on the Heat on Friday. Bennedict Mathurin will likely handle an increased role Monday.

Won't play Saturday Nesmith will miss Saturday's game versus the Pacers due to right foot soreness.
Impact Nesmith is coming off of his best effort of the season against the Wizards, tallying 15 points and seven boards over 30 minutes, so this foot soreness surfaces at an inopportune time. Nesmith's absence could pave the way for rookie Bennedict Mathurin to make his first career start. Chris Duarte is another candidate to see additional run.

Offers very little is starting role Nesmith totaled seven points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and three blocks across 23 minutes during Saturday's 124-115 victory over the Pistons.
Impact Nesmith shifted into the starting lineup Saturday but failed to deliver anything close to fantasy-relevant numbers. It appears as though the Pacers are willing to play with their rotations a bit from one game to the next, meaning Nesmith should at least get some more opportunities moving forward. With that said, there is very little reason to think he can be anything more than a streaming consideration in deeper formats.

Questionable vs. Spurs Nesmith is questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs due to left foot soreness.
Impact Nesmith was limited by a foot issue late in the preseason but suited up for Wednesday's regular-season opener and posted three points, four rebounds and an assist in 22 minutes off the bench. He continues to deal with the injury, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him suit up once again Friday.

Beal, Wizards open season with 114-107 win over Pacers

Playing in opener Nesmith (foot) will play in Wednesday's opener against the Wizards, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Impact Nesmith's plantar fasciitis feels fine after some time off, so he'll presumably be in the rotation on Opening Night. He should see more minutes on the rebuilding Pacers than he did with the Celtics last season.
OCTOBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Likely questionable for opener Nesmith (foot) will likely hold a questionable tag for Wednesday's opener against the Wizards, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Impact Nesmith logged a limited practice Monday after missing much of the preseason, but he's progressed enough to potentially take part Wednesday. If he can play, Nesmith should log double-digit minutes as a bench contributor for the Pacers.
OCTOBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Logs limited practice Nesmith (foot) was a limited participant in Monday's practice, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Impact Nesmith has yet to participate in any contact work but has been making process in his plantar fasciitis recovery. Head coach Rick Carlisle noted that Nesmith's activity level in Tuesday's practice would be significant in determining his status for Wednesday's season opener against the Wizards. Nesmith is slated to hold a depth role for the Pacers this season, but any potential absence could result in a more significant workload for first-round pick Bennedict Mathurin.

Not ruled out for opener Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said Nesmith (foot) was able to do a "little bit" in Saturday's practice and might be ready to play in Wednesday's season opener against the Wizards...
Impact Carlisle added that he's hopeful Nesmith will be able to take part in live work at practice Monday, with the third-year wing's status for the opener likely to be dictated by what he's able to do that day. Even after moving from the Celtics to what appears to be a rebuilding Pacers club, Nesmith isn't guaranteed to be a regular rotation player in his first season in Indiana.

Pacers pick up options on Tyrese Haliburton, 3 others

The Indiana Pacers are picking up the fourth-year option on starting point guard Tyrese Haliburton
OCTOBER 12, 2022 • Associated Press
Fourth-year option picked up The Pacers exercised Nesmith's (foot) fourth-year option for 2023-24 on Wednesday, Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated reports.
Impact Nesmith was traded to the Pacers in a deal that sent Malcolm Brogdon to the Celtics this offseason. Across two seasons with Boston, Nesmith garnered a modest reserve gig, but it appears he'll have an opportunity to carve out a solid depth role in Indiana. Due to the fact that Nesmith has yet to play for Indiana during the regular season and isn't guaranteed to be a major contributor, this move comes as a bit of a surprise, but the Pacers will now have at least two years to get an extended look at Nesmith's fit with the organization.
