Impact After missing Thursday's win over the Hornets due to lower-back soreness, Nembhard returned to action Saturday and led the Pacers in multiple categories.

During that span, he has averaged 21.3 points, 10.3 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 31.3 minutes per tilt.

Jay Huff - Not starting Saturday Huff is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Heat, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Impact Huff has been a regular starter for the Pacers of late and has been part of the first unit in all but two of the Pacers' last 20 games, but that won't be the case Saturday. Huff should still see sizable minutes as a rim protector. He's averaging 6.6 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.0 blocks across 16.7 minutes per game in 18 outings off the bench this season.

Andrew Nembhard - Upgraded to available Nembhard (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Heat.

Impact Nembhard was trending in the right direction earlier Saturday, and the guard has now been upgraded to available. The fourth-year veteran is having a career-best season with 17.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 7.0 assists per game this season, so having him back is a huge boost for the Pacers.

Andrew Nembhard - Trending in right direction Head coach Rick Carlisle said he believes Nembhard (back) will play against the Heat on Saturday, Alex Golden of the 'Setting the Pace' podcast reports.

Impact Nembhard missed Thursday's win over the Hornets due to lower-back soreness but appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of Saturday's contest. He'll likely suit up barring any setbacks during his pregame warmups and will presumably be a game-time decision ahead of tipoff at 7:00 p.m. ET. If the 25-year-old point guard is ultimately ruled out, T.J. McConnell, Quenton Jackson and Ben Sheppard are candidates for increased minutes. Over his last five games, Nembhard has averaged 16.8 points, 7.4 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 32.2 minutes per tilt.

Isaiah Jackson - To miss at least one more week Head coach Rick Carlisle said Saturday that Jackson has been cleared from the league's concussion protocol, though he'll need at least one more week to ramp up his conditioning, Du...

Impact Jackson hasn't played since Dec. 22 but appears to be nearing a return to action. Still, he isn't expected to return until next Saturday's game against Detroit at the very earliest. In the meantime, Micah Potter and Tony Bradley will likely continue to split the backup center duties behind Jay Huff.

Andrew Nembhard - Questionable to face Miami Nembhard (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Heat.

Impact Nembhard is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive game due to lower-back soreness. If the 25-year-old point guard isn't cleared to suit up, T.J. McConnell, Quenton Jackson and Ben Sheppard are candidates for an uptick in minutes.

Isaiah Jackson - Absence streak to continue Jackson is out for Saturday's game against Miami with a concussion.

Jay Huff - Swats three shots vs. Hornets Huff totaled 10 points (4-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), two rebounds and three blocks in 24 minutes during Thursday's 114-112 victory over the Hornets.

Impact Huff has started the past two games after Micah Potter temporarily filled that spot in the first two games of the new year. The 28-year-old big man was perfect from the field on four attempts and added three blocks on the defensive end. Huff now leads the league with eight games this season of at least three blocks and two triples.

Aaron Nesmith - Solid two-way performance in win Nesmith ended Thursday's 114-112 victory over the Hornets with 16 points (5-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes.

Impact Nesmith has made 11 three-pointers over his last three games after going 3-for-7 from deep for the second straight game on Thursday. The 26-year-old also notched his third game this season with at least one steal and a block. The Vanderbilt product should continue to see heavy minutes with Bennedict Mathurin (thumb) sidelined, and he's averaging 16.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 3.0 threes and 1.0 blocks in 32.8 minutes per contest through four games in January.

Impact McConnell stuffed the stat sheet in Thursday's win over the Hornets, setting a season high in points and steals while matching his high-water mark for assists. The 33-year-old guard saw an uptick in minutes with Bennedict Mathurin (thumb) sidelined and put up his best performance of the season. McConnell is averaging 12.1 points, 5.7 assists, 2.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals over 19 minutes per contest in his last nine games.
