Still out Friday Theis has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Spurs due to right knee soreness.

Impact Theis sat out Wednesday against the Wizards for rest purposes, but he's now dealing with a knee issue that will keep him off the court for a second consecutive game. His next chance to make his season debut will be Saturday against Detroit.

Won't play in opener Theis (rest) will sit out Wednesday's opener versus the Wizards, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

Impact Theis missed the entire preseason after playing for Germany in EuroBasket 2022, and it looks like he will continue to rest into the regular season before making his debut. With Wednesday off the table, Theis' next chance to take the floor arrives Friday against the Spurs.

Ruled out for preseason Theis (rest) has been ruled out for the remainder of the preseason, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

Impact Theis didn't really have an offseason after transitioning from playing for the Celtics during the NBA Finals to suiting up for Germany during EuroBasket 2022, so the Pacers have been cautious with the big man during the preseason. His status for the regular season remains unclear, but there hasn't been any indication he'll miss any time. If available, he figures to compete for backup frontcourt minutes behind Myles Turner with the likes of Isaiah Jackson, Goga Bitadze, Jalen Smith and Oshae Brissett.

Out again Theis (rest) has been ruled out for Friday's preseason game against the Knicks.

Impact Theis will miss a second straight preseason contest, but it's encouraging to see him listed out due to rest as opposed to the illness designation he held during the beginning of training camp. The German big man went from playing for the Celtics during the NBA Finals into EuroBasket play and didn't really have an offseason, so the Pacers are expected to continue resting him periodically throughout the preseason.

Won't play Wednesday Theis (illness/rest) won't play in Wednesday's exhibition contest against the Hornets, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

Impact Theis missed the Pacers' first training camp practice due to an illness, but it's unclear if the aliment is the reasoning behind his expected absence. The German big man didn't really have an offseason after playing with Boston in the NBA Finals and then transitioning quickly into EuroBasket play. Regardless, more information about Theis' status will likely be available as the regular season draws closer.

OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Misses practice with illness Theis wasn't in attendance Tuesday for the Pacers' first training camp practice due to an illness, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

Impact Theis reportedly had some symptoms of COVID-19, but he hasn't tested positive for the virus and will be eligible to practice as soon as Wednesday if he continues to test negative. After coming over from Boston in July as part of the deal that sent Malcolm Brogdon to the Celtics, Theis is projected to serve as a depth piece in the Indiana frontcourt in 2022-23.
