Kobe Brown started the second half in his place and figures to see more action the rest of the way. Walker will presumably receive more testing ahead of Sunday's meeting with Miami.

Impact Walker's play this season has been a bright spot in what's otherwise been a lost season for the Pacers. The third-year forward is ending the season on a strong run and has scored in double digits in each of his last eight games, averaging 15.8 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game in that span. Furthermore, Walker is averaging 14.9 points, 7.2 boards and 3.8 assists per game since the All-Star break while starting in each of his 18 appearances and averaging 31.5 minutes per game. Look for Walker to remain in the starting lineup in the final weeks of the regular season amid what has been a career-best season for him.

Goes for 21 points in loss Walker amassed 21 points (8-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Saturday's 134-119 loss to San Antonio.

The 21 points were the most he has scored in his past 11 games, a welcome sight for anyone considering him a drop. Given his role feels secure, Walker should be held onto in most leagues, providing managers with a solid plug-and-play option.

Impact Walker continues to play a sizeable role, having now logged at least 30 minutes in six of the past seven games. The rotation in Indiana has been almost impossible to project over the past month, although Walker seems to have avoided all the nonsense. While his upside remains somewhat limited, he is worth rostering in most formats simply due to the fact that he plays heavy minutes on a nightly basis.
