  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Still weeks away from game action

    Coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Nesmith (ankle) is still weeks away from returning to game action, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Andrew Nembhard (knee) is returning to the Pacers' starting lineup Sunday, but they'll still be without Nesmith for the foreseeable future. Quenton Jackson will move to the bench to make room for Nembhard, while Bennedict Mathurin should continue to start until Nesmith is cleared to play again. Given Carlisle's vague return timeline, it seems unlikely Nesmith will be able to play until after the NBA Cup concludes.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Won't play Sunday

    Nesmith (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Out until at least December

    Coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Nesmith (ankle) will remain out until at least December, Tony East of SI.com reports.

    Nesmith was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks, which would've marked his fourth straight absence due to a left ankle sprain. However, the fifth-year wing is now looking at an extended absence, as is Andrew Nembhard (knee). In their absences, Bennedict Mathurin and Ben Sheppard have moved into the starting lineup, but Jarace Walker, Quenton Jackson and Enrique Freeman are also candidates for increased roles.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Walking boot on left foot

    Head coach Rick Carlisle said Monday that Nesmith (ankle) is wearing a walking boot on his left foot, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Nesmith suffered a sprained left ankle during the Pacers' loss to the Pelicans on Friday. It's unclear how long he'll wear a walking boot, but while he is sidelined, Bennedict Mathurin should continue to be in the Pacers' starting lineup.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Out for Monday vs. Mavs

    Nesmith (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Mavericks, Tony East of SI.com reports.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Won't return Friday

    Nesmith (ankle) won't return to Friday's game against the Pelicans.

    Nesmith was a perfect 5-for-5 from the floor with 12 points in 10 first-half minutes before sustaining a left ankle sprain. With Andrew Nembhard (knee) also out, the Pacers will need more out of Bennedict Mathurin, Jarace Walker, T.J. McConnell, Obi Toppin and Ben Sheppard.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Sprains left ankle Friday

    Nesmith is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Pelicans due to a left ankle sprain, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

    Per Tony East of SI.com, Nesmith was in a lot of pain as he reached for his left ankle and had to be helped off the court before limping to the locker room. Nesmith was a perfect 5-for-5 from the floor with 12 points in 10 first-half minutes. If Nesmith is unable to return, T.J. McConnell, Obi Toppin and Ben Sheppard would be candidates for further increased roles, as Andrew Nembhard (knee) was ruled out ahead of the contest.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Quiet in preseason win

    Nesmith finished with four points (2-7 FG, 0-2 3PT), one rebound and one block in 21 minutes during Thursday's preseason win over the Hornets.

    Nesmith was back in the starting lineup but struggled to find any rhythm. Although he is slated to be a starter come Opening Night, Nesmith's fantasy game is relatively limited. He could very well have pockets of value throughout the season, but it's hard to see him being anything more than a streamer, barring injuries to other key players.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Starting vs. Charlotte

    Nesmith (ankle) is in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Hornets.

    The Pacers rotated their first unit in their previous preseason contest, but they're trending toward what looks like their lineup for the regular-season opener against the Pistons next Wednesday, and that includes Nesmith, who missed Monday's contest against the Grizzlies due to an ankle injury. Nesmith isn't expected to have any limits regarding his workload in this matchup, though the goal should be to keep him healthy and available for the season opener next week.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Out Monday

    Nesmith won't play in Monday's preseason game against Memphis due to an ankle injury.

    Nesmith posted 10 points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 14 minutes during last Thursday's win over the Cavaliers. His next chance to suit up will come next Thursday against the Hornets.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Ends productive season in loss

    Nesmith logged 14 points (4-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, an assist and a steal over 35 minutes during Monday's 105-102 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

    Nesmith posted career highs in every major category this season, putting up 12.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.7 blocks in 27.7 minutes. After signing an extension at the beginning of the season, the 24-year-old will likely return to the Pacers next season and look to expand his role with the team.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Good to go

    Nesmith (shoulder) is available for Sunday's Game 4 against the Knicks, Tony East of SI.com reports.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Iffy for Game 4

    Nesmith is questionable for Sunday's Game 4 against New York with right shoulder soreness.

    Nesmith's shoulder injury is new, as he seemingly picked up the issue during the Pacers' Game 3 win. Nesmith has averaged 34.3 minutes per game during the series, which could open up plenty of minutes for Doug McDermott and Ben Sheppard if Nesmith winds up sitting Sunday.
