Indiana Pacers vs. Washington Wizards - News - December 15, 2023 | FOX Sports

T.J. McConnell - Starting over Haliburton McConnell is in the starting lineup to face the Timberwolves on Saturday.

Impact As expected, McConnell gets the starting nod with Tyrese Haliburton (knee) sidelined. McConnell has the ability to deliver good performances when given extra minutes, even if he doesn't have the same dynamism as Haliburton, and he should see an uptick in both usage and overall numbers while potentially playing close to 30 to 35 minutes.

Tyrese Haliburton - Officially listed questionable Haliburton (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game versus Minnesota.

Impact Haliburton suffered a left knee contusion during Friday's loss to Washington and is now in danger of missing Saturday's contest. If the star point guard is ruled out, T.J. McConnell and Bennedict Mathurin are candidates to receive increased roles.
