Questionable vs. Wizards Bitadze (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Washington.

Impact The rookie was held out of Saturday's re-opening win over the Sixers, and the Pacers will wait to see how the knee feels at shootaround Monday before making a final call on his status. If Bitadze can't go against the Wizards, T.J. Leaf will likely serve as the backup to starting center Myles Turner.

Questionable Monday Brogdon (neck) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Brogdon missed the Pacers' first game of the resumed season Saturday against the 76ers with the strained muscle in his neck. The point guard sat out Sunday's walk-through session, according to J. Michael of The Athletic, but the team will wait to see how he feels Monday before making a final determination. The Pacers are already expected to be without Victor Oladipo (knee) on the first half of a back-to-back set.

Listed doubtful for Monday Oladipo (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Per Scott Agness of VigilantSports.com, coach Nate McMillan said after Sunday's walk-through practice that Oladipo would sit out one half of the Pacers' upcoming back-to-back set, so his doubtful designation implies that Monday's contest will likely be his time to rest. Oladipo played near a full minutes load (32) in Saturday's win over the Sixers, finishing with 15 points (6-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal. If he does in fact end up sitting Monday, Aaron Holiday would be the top candidate to start at shooting guard, though there could be room for both him and Edmond Sumner on the top-unit backcourt if Malcolm Brodgon (neck) is also out.

Scores 14, dishes five dimes Smith supplied 14 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five assists, four rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 28 minutes during Sunday's 118-110 loss to the Nets.

Impact Smith continues to do an impressive job spearheading the team's second unit. He turned in a solid showing against the Suns on Friday as well, finishing with 17 points, seven dimes and four boards in 27 minutes, and Smith will seek to keep it rolling during Monday's contest against the Pacers.

Won't play Sunday Bellinelli (foot) won't play Sunday against Memphis, Jeff Garcia of News 4 San Antonio reports.

Impact As anticipated, the veteran will be inactive to tend to a left foot sprain which he suffered in Friday's contest against the Kings. With Belinelli out, Lonnie Walker may see increased run off the bench Sunday. Belinelli will have a chance to return to the floor Monday versus the 76ers.
