JaKarr Sampson

Productive in bench role Sampson scored 10 points (5-6 FG) while adding three rebounds, an assist and a steal in 17 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 113-101 Game 1 loss against the Heat.

Impact Sampson was one of four Pacers who scored in double digits during Tuesday's loss, but the small forward made the most of his limited time on the court since he logged the second-fewest minutes in the team during the playoff opener. Sampson only averaged 4.6 points during the regular season, however, so he's not expected to post these scoring figures on a regular basis moving forward.

Set to scrimmage Sampson (back) said Tuesday that he's been cleared to participate in scrimmages, J. Michael of the Indy Star reports.

Impact Sampson was dealing with a lower-back injury that limited him in recent practices, but all indications are that he'll be ready to play in the Pacers' first scrimmage on Thursday against Portland. Sampson played double-digit minutes in each of the Pacers' final four games before the shutdown in March.

Dealing with soft-tissue injury Sampson has been limited in the Pacers' recent practices with what head coach Nate McMillan called a soft-tissue injury, Scott Agness of The Athletic reports.

Impact Sampson missed a few sessions last week due to the issue, but he was able to get back on the court Sunday in some capacity. The Pacers are likely just taking it easy with Sampson with the hope of avoiding a more serious setback before the team resumes its regular season in Orlando on Aug. 1 versus the 76ers. He should gradually ease back to full work in practice within the next few days to clear up any concern about his status for the resumption of the NBA season.
