Daniel Theis receiving less playing time as Indiana Pacers look to develop young players Theis was the Pacers backup center for a few weeks, but that is no longer the case

MARCH 9, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Absent from injury report Theis (thumb) isn't listed on the Pacers' injury report for Thursday's matchup against the Celtics.

Impact Theis was sidelined for the Pacers' final game before the All-Star break due to a thumb injury, but he appears to have benefitted from the time off and should be available Thursday. Before his absence, he'd appeared in six of Indiana's past seven games and averaged 6.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.3 minutes.

Ruled out Theis (thumb) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against the Bulls, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Theis presumably suffered the right thumb sprain during Monday's loss to Utah and will have to sit out the Pacers' final contest before the All-Star break due to the issue. Myles Turner (back) has been cleared, so Isaiah Jackson figures to operate as the primary backup behind Turner versus Chicago. Theis' next chance to suit up will come Feb. 23 against Boston.

FEBRUARY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable vs. Bulls Theis is questionable for Wednesday's tilt against the Bulls due to a sprained right thumb.

Impact The Pacers could be shorthanded in the frontcourt Wednesday, as Myles Turner (back) is also questionable. Absences to one or both centers could mean more minutes for Isaiah Jackson and Jalen Smith.

FEBRUARY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Monday Theis will start at center in Monday's game against the Jazz, Tony East of SI.com reports.

Impact Theis sat out Saturday's loss to Washington due to right knee injury management, but he's available and will draw his first start of the season with Myles Turner (back) sidelined. Theis has averaged 6.0 points and 2.4 rebounds in 14.0 minutes per game over his five appearances this season.

FEBRUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Monday Theis (right knee injury mangement) isn't listed on the Pacers' injury report and should be available for Monday's game against the Jazz.

Impact As anticipated, Theis will be good to go for the start of the Pacers' three-game week to close out the first half slate after he rested during Saturday's loss to the Wizards in the second leg of a back-to-back set. Since making his season debut earlier this month, Theis has settled in as the top backup to Myles Turner, but Theis could get the chance to start Monday if Turner -- who is listed as questionable with lower-back soreness -- is unable to play.

FEBRUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out for rest Saturday Theis is out Saturday against the Wizards due to right knee injury management.

Impact Theis has appeared in five straight games -- including one back-to-back -- since making his season debut after recovering from a knee injury. Understandably, the organization will give him a game off, and he should be back for Monday's matchup against the Jazz. Isaiah Jackson could see more run Saturday.

FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Available to play Theis (knee) is available to play Sunday against Cleveland.

Impact Theis will be available for a third consecutive matchup despite his knee injury. He's averaged 11.5 minutes per game over his first two appearances of the season, which hasn't been enough floor time for him to impact most fantasy leagues.

FEBRUARY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Could rest Sunday Theis is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Cavaliers due to right knee injury management.

Impact Surprisingly, Theis played in the Pacers' Thursday-Friday back-to-back despite those two games being his first appearances of the year. However, he may rest Sunday, giving him an extended break until the Pacers play again Wednesday against the Heat.

FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plays as primary backup Theis ended Friday's 107-104 victory over the Kings with eight points (3-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 15 minutes.

Impact Theis played 15 minutes off the bench Friday, soaking up all of the available backup center minutes. While this isn't really relevant from a standard league perspective, it is interesting that both Jalen Smith and Isaiah Jackson were out of the rotation. Jackson has been the focus of much discussion lately, specifically centered around his stash value heading into the trade deadline. This is certainly not an encouraging sign, although he could still be worth holding given the deadline is only a matter of days away.

FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Available against Kings Theis (knee) is available for Friday's game against Sacramento, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Theis was limited to just seven minutes during his season debut Thursday, but it's encouraging that he'll be able to suit up for the second half of the Pacers' back-to-back set. Despite his availability, his workload will presumably be monitored once again Friday.

FEBRUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Friday Theis (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Kings.

Impact Theis made his season debut Thursday against the Lakers and didn't record any counting stats in seven minutes of playing time. If he's able to suit up for the second half of the back-to-back set Friday, he'll likely face a significant minutes restriction again.
