Pacers T.J. McConnell will miss at least a month according to coach Rick Carlisle Pacers reserve point guard T.J. McConnell will miss at least a month with a hamstring injury

OCTOBER 9, 2025 • INDYSTAR.COM

Expected to miss one month McConnell (hamstring) is expected to miss at least one month of action, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

Impact This is a massive blow for Indiana, as they are already short on ball-handlers with Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) out for the season. With McConnell expected to miss at least a month, that puts his earliest possible return at Nov. 11 against the Jazz. The Pacers signed Cameron Payne to a training camp contract Thursday after waiving Delon Wright, and Andrew Nembhard is now likely to see even more ball-handling reps to open the season.
