Pacers Talk Quenton Jackson & Kobe Brown Contributions, Big Road Win at Knicks

5 HOURS AGO • YOUTUBE

Across-the-board production Jackson racked up 19 points (5-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 137-134 overtime win over the Knicks.

Impact Jackson chipped in across all major categories, taking advantage of what could end up being a nice opportunity. With Johnny Furphy (knee) done for the season, there is a world where Jackson could have a meaningful role moving forward. Coupled with the fact that Indiana is likely to rest players on a consistent basis, managers could certainly give Jackson a look as a speculative fantasy piece.

Scores 24 points in loss Jackson had 24 points (9-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), three assists, three steals and one rebound over 17 minutes during Tuesday's 131-122 loss to Utah.

Impact With multiple key contributors sidelined in the second leg of this back-to-back set, Jackson saw increased burn and torched the nets, albeit in a losing effort. The two-way player tied the team-high mark in points and led Indiana with a season-high-tying three steals. Still, the 27-year-old guard logged just one minute over Indiana's previous five outings, so he isn't expected to see meaningful minutes unless injuries arise in the backcourt.

Available for Monday Jackson (ankle) is available for Monday's game against Atlanta.

Impact Jackson will be returning following a one-game absence. With Bennedict Mathurin returning to action Monday, Jackson will likely just be an emergency depth option.

JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy against Atlanta Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Jackson could miss a second consecutive game due to a right ankle sprain. Bennedict Mathurin (thumb, questionable), T.J. McConnell and Ben Sheppard would be candidates for extra minutes if Jackson is unable to suit up.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Friday Jackson (ankle) won't play in Friday's game against the Thunder, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Jackson is sidelined for at least one game with right ankle soreness, but head coach Rick Carlisle notes that the guard could be available for Monday's tilt in Atlanta. With Jackson out of the lineup Friday, the door is open for T.J. McConnell and Ben Sheppard to take on a more sizable role in the backcourt rotation.

JANUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call for Friday Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Jackson picked up a right ankle injury during Wednesday's game against the Celtics, and his status is now uncertain for Friday. The team should have another update on his availability closer to tipoff.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Wednesday Jackson has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against Boston due to right ankle soreness.

Impact Jackson will miss the entire second half due to ankle soreness. The two-way guard ends the contest with three points (1-2 3Pt), in six minutes of action. His next chance to play will come Friday at Oklahoma City. In the meantime, TJ McConnell could see a slight uptick in minutes.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Not starting Monday Jackson won't start Monday's game against the 76ers.

Impact The Pacers will welcome three of their regular starters back to the lineup Monday, resulting in Jackson retreating to the second unit. The 27-year-old guard has averaged 6.3 points in 11.3 minutes per game across 11 appearances off the bench so far this season.

JANUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Saturday Jackson will start against the Pistons on Saturday.

Impact The Pacers will be without several key contributors in the second leg of this back-to-back set, so Jackson will get the starting nod for the third time this month. Over eight starts so far this season, the two-way player has averaged 9.4 points, 3.5 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 21.8 minutes per tilt.

Huff's career-high 29 points power Pacers to a 127-119 win over the Pelicans

Center Jay Huff had a career-best 29 points and nine rebounds and led five players in double figures as the Indiana Pacers beat the New Orleans Pelicans 127-119 on Friday night

JANUARY 17 • Associated Press

Retreating to bench Jackson will come off the bench Monday against the Celtics, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact Jackson didn't do much with his last two chances to start, totaling 10 points, one rebound, six assists, two steals and one block in 41 total minutes. Jay Huff will rotate back into the starting lineup with Jackson moving to a bench role Monday.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Joining starting lineup Jackson is starting in Thursday's game against the Hornets, per Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site.

Impact Jackson is getting the call to fill the void at point guard left behind by Andrew Nembhard (back). Jackson has averaged 10.8 points, 3.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 22.2 minutes per tilt across six games as a starter this season.

JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Falls out of rotation Jackson (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Wednesday in the Pacers' 112-110 loss to the Magic.

Impact Though Indiana head coach Rick Carlisle used 11 players Wednesday, Jackson wasn't included among the group, as the return of Ben Sheppard (calf) from an 11-game absence left no available minutes on the wing. Even if Sheppard hadn't returned, Jackson might have been at risk of falling out of the rotation anyway, after he had been limited to just four minutes of garbage-time run in the Pacers' previous game Monday against the Rockets. Jackson is on a two-way deal with Indiana, so if his playing time remains scarce at the NBA level in future contests, he could be assigned to the G League's Noblesville Boom in order to pick up meaningful minutes.

JANUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Moves to bench role Jackson is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Heat.

Impact Jackson started in Friday's loss to the Celtics, but he'll move back to the bench for this contest. Jackson is averaging 4.0 points per game in his three outings off the bench this season, so he shouldn't carry a lot of upside.

DECEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Friday Jackson is starting in Friday's game against the Celtics.

Impact The Pacers are giving Jackson a look in the first unit as opposed to Ethan Thompson. Jackson has averaged 11.8 points, 4.2 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 23.5 minutes per contest across five games as a starter this season.

DECEMBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Shifting to bench Jackson isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Celtics, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact Jackson has started the Pacers' last two games, but he'll rotate to the bench for Monday's clash. Ethan Thompson will enter the starting lineup in Jackson's place.

DECEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Late addition to starting lineup Jackson is starting Thursday's game against the Knicks, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Ethan Thompson was initially listed in the starting lineup, but Jackson was on the court for tipoff. It's unclear if Thompson is dealing with some sort of injury, or if the Pacers simply decided to shuffle the starting five.

DECEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Plays eight minutes in blowout loss Jackson (hamstring) tallied one point (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and three rebounds across eight minutes in Sunday's 108-89 loss to the Wizards.

Impact After an extended absence due to a right hamstring strain, Jackson had been upgraded to available for the Pacers' previous game Friday against the 76ers, but he was left out of the rotation in a 10-point loss. He remained on the bench for the entire first half of Sunday's contest before checking into the game early in the third quarter in what was his first appearance at the NBA level since Nov. 3. Jackson wasn't particularly productive during his time on the court, but it wouldn't be surprising if he eventually earned more playing time on the wing at the expense of fellow two-way player Ethan Thompson or journeyman Garrison Mathews.

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Available Friday Jackson (hamstring) is available for Friday's game against the 76ers.

Impact Jackson will return to action for the parent club for the first time since Nov. 3 due to a right hamstring strain. The two-way player was able to play for the G League's Noblesville Boom on Thursday, posting 14 points, five assists and one rebound across 16 minutes. He'll likely serve as a depth piece behind Andrew Nembhard and T.J. McConnell and isn't guaranteed to see significant burn.
