Ty Jerome - Not expected to play Tuesday Jerome (illness) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against Indiana, Evan Dammarell of DownEuclid.com reports.
Impact Jerome is expected to miss his second consecutive contest while he deals with a lingering illness. If the guard remains sidelined, Sam Merrill will likely see an uptick in playing time. Over his last five outings, Jerome has averaged 9.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 17.0 minutes per game.

Aaron Nesmith - Out again Tuesday Nesmith (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest with Cleveland.
Impact This will be Nesmith's 35th consecutive game due to his left ankle sprain, and he has only appeared in the first six games of the season. No timetable has been established yet for his return, but do not expect him to be available until there are more encouraging signs in the future.

Tyrese Haliburton - Unlikely to play Tuesday Haliburton (hamstring) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Impact Haliburton will likely miss his first game of the season Tuesday due to a left hamstring injury he suffered during Sunday's win in Cleveland, which he finished with two points (1-5 FG) and five assists in 18 minutes. If Haliburton is indeed ruled out, Andrew Nembhard could see more minutes at point guard, while Ben Sheppard enters the starting lineup at shooting guard, but T.J. McConnell also figures to see an increased role. Haliburton notably strained the same hamstring last January and was sidelined for nine of 10 games, and he struggled to return to form down the stretch.
