Larry Nance Jr. - Out Monday Nance (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks.
Impact Including Nance, the Pacers have ruled out 10 players ahead of Monday's contest. Kobe Brown and Jarace Walker should see heavy workloads with the club shorthanded.

Obi Toppin - Dressing but won't play Monday Toppin (back) will dress for Monday's game against Hawks but will only play in an emergency, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Impact Toppin has missed the last two games while dealing with a lumbar strain, and the only reason he's dressing Monday is in the event of an emergency, as the Pacers are down to eight active players (including Toppin). Jay Huff, Kelly Oubre, Kobe Brown, Jarace Walker and Jalen Slawson will be tasked with eating up minutes in the frontcourt with Toppin, Ivica Zubac (ankle) and Larry Nance (illness) sidelined.

Braden Smith - Drawing first career start Monday Smith will start Monday's game against the Hawks, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Impact The Pacers will be extremely shorthanded in the second half of this back-to-back set, opening the door for Smith to make his first career start. The two-way player has logged double-digit minutes just once this season, but the Pacers will need him to take on a heavy workload Monday.

Jalen Johnson - Ruled out Monday Johnson (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game versus Indiana.
Impact Johnson exited Saturday's loss to the Pelicans with a left ankle sprain and will sit out Monday's contest. The star forward's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Wizards. In the meantime, Aaron Wiggins, Luguentz Dort and Asa Newell are candidates for increased playing time.

T.J. McConnell - Remains week-to-week McConnell (hamstring) is out for Monday's game against the Hawks and remains week-to-week.
Impact There haven't been many updates on McConnell's progress, though he did practice with the Noblesville Boom on Saturday. Quenton Jackson is likely to see extended run in the meantime.
5 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Ivica Zubac - Remains out indefinitely Zubac (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks.
Impact Zubac is slated to miss a fifth straight game due to an ankle sprain, and while the Pacers were optimistic about a quick return, it's fair to treat the big man as week-to-week, given he continues to be ruled out on the team's initial injury report. In the starting center's absence, Jay Huff and Larry Nance (illness) have handled increased roles.
