T.J. McConnell - Ruled out for Tuesday McConnell (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

Impact The veteran point guard exited Sunday's loss to Portland in the fourth quarter due to right hamstring soreness and will miss Tuesday's contest with the same issue. His next opportunity to play will come Thursday against Phoenix. With McConnell out and Andrew Nembhard (neck/back) doubtful to play, Kam Jones, Quenton Jackson and Ben Sheppard are all in line to see increased playing time.

Jarace Walker - Probable for Tuesday Walker is probable for Tuesday's game against the Kings due to a right ankle sprain and mid back soreness.

Impact Walker tallied 14 points during Sunday's matchup against Portand but evidently emerged from the game a bit banged up. Even so, he appears on track to play Tuesday in Sacramento.

Ivica Zubac - Won't play Tuesday Zubac (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

Impact Zubac has yet to make his Pacers debut due to a sprained left ankle and remains without a definitive timetable for a return. He should be considered doubtful for future contests until Indiana offers an update on his progress.

Andrew Nembhard - Unlikely to play Tuesday Nembhard is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Kings due to lower back and neck soreness.

Impact Nembhard was cleared to suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Blazers, but he's on track to get a rest day Tuesday evening. Kam Jones and Quenton Jackson would be in line for a start at point guard, assuming Nembhard is downgraded to out closer to tipoff.

Pascal Siakam - Sidelined with knee sprain Siakam is out for Tuesday's game against the Kings due to a right knee sprain.

Impact Siakam looked sharp in Sunday's matchup against Portland, but he'll take a seat Tuesday after suffering a knee injury. Kobe Brown and Micah Potter should be in line for more chances in the frontcourt with Siakam sidelined.

Kobe Brown - Decent stat line off bench Brown accumulated eight points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and one block over 20 minutes during Sunday's 131-111 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Brown has scored in single figures in six straight games, and his streaming viability is mostly tied to occasions when the Pacers choose to rest some of their key contributors. The third-year forward has averaged 7.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 22.7 minutes per tilt in his last six games.

Jarace Walker - Efficient in loss to Portland Walker ended Sunday's 131-111 loss to the Trail Blazers with 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and two steals in 31 minutes.

Impact The Pacers struggled massively on defense in this game, but Walker was efficient with his shot while scoring in double digits for a fifth consecutive contest. The third-year is having a career-best season in 2025-26, averaging 11.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 0.8 steals per game in 63 appearances (28 starts). The uptick in his scoring numbers has been noticeable, as Walker has scored in double digits in all but one of his last 19 contests dating back to Jan. 21.

Jay Huff - Scores 16, shines defensively Huff ended with 16 points (5-15 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist, five blocks and one steal over 22 minutes during Sunday's 131-111 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Huff needed 15 shots and only made 30 percent of his threes en route to his 16-point outing, but his real value came on the defensive end with six combined steals-plus-blocks. Huff has scored in double digits while providing multiple blocks in three of his last four starts, and he's averaging 13.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.1 blocks per game since the All-Star break.

Pascal Siakam - Scores 22 points in loss Siakam had 22 points (9-20 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-9 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Sunday's 131-111 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Siakam was one of the few bright spots for the Pacers in this 20-point loss, and the forward continues to carry the team offensively. This was his fifth consecutive outing with 20-plus points, a stretch in which he's averaging 27.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.4 steals per game. Siakam has been nursing a wrist injury, so he might be rested from time to time, but he's a strong fantasy asset to consider every time he's deemed active, especially considering the big role he has on the Pacers' offensive scheme.
