Nesmith’s availability is more impactful, as he has been a fixture in the Pacers’ starting lineup. If he’s unable to play, Bennedict Mathurin will likely move into the starting lineup, which raises his fantasy ceiling.

Haliburton has hit double digits in assists in his last nine appearances, which is why he has ranked among the best players in fantasy basketball since the All-Star break. According to Basketball Monster, he’s ranked second in eight-cat formats since the break, trailing only Oklahoma City’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. And for managers whose fantasy playoffs begin with Week 20, the Pacers play four games each of the following three weeks. This is a great time to have Haliburton on your roster.

While his fantasy value since the All-Star break hasn’t been great, Spicy P has been a top 40 player in eight- and nine-cat formats during this six-game run. Siakam will look to continue this run on Monday when the Pacers visit the Timberwolves. Indiana will play four games during Week 20.

Young had scored at least 35 points in his last two games and at least 20 points in his last four games entering play Friday.

He only attempted four free throws after attempting a combined 33 over his last two games. Young will look to bounce back Sunday against the Nets.

No surprise here as Young was merely listed as probable with an Achilles injury since the Hawks were fined earlier this season after they left the 26-year-old point guard off the injury report.

Due to right olecranon bursitis, Siakam is now questionable for Friday’s game. The Pacers forward has not missed a game this season, and an absence would undoubtedly impact the team offensively.

However, fantasy managers should not overlook Toppin, even if he remains in a reserve role.

Atlanta is still waging their petty war against the NBA after the league fined them $100k for Young’s absence in November, which explains Young’s continued presence on the injury report with this Achilles injury. Trae turned in a 35/7/12 line on Wednesday and will look to stay hot on Friday.

Siakam got going early in this game and did a lot of work early on. He entered halftime with a double-double, and while he didn’t add much after the break, it was still an excellent night for him. Siakam struggled in Indiana’s blowout loss to Chicago, so it was encouraging to see him get back on track in this one and record just his second double-double since the All-Star break. Tyrese Haliburton’s return made life easier for Siakam, and he’ll look to continue filling up the stat sheet during their back-to-back set on Friday and Saturday.

Mathurin returned to playing his typical role off the bench after starting in Monday’s loss to Chicago, but he was still able to contribute plenty of offense as a reserve. 11 of his 17 points came in the first half, but he wasn’t able to add many points during his nine minutes in the second half. Mathurin is an excellent scoring option for Indiana, but he is a difficult player to trust in fantasy basketball when he isn’t starting. Still, he is more than capable of getting hot and having a big night at any time.

After missing Indiana’s last three games, Haliburton (hip) was back in the lineup on Tuesday. He had been the best player in fantasy basketball since the All-Star break, but he wasn’t able to maintain that elite production in this game. Indiana lost all three games without Haliburton, but he was able to get them back in the win column in his return. He completed a four-point play by knocking down a ridiculous shot from the corner while being fouled by Giannis Antetokounmpo. Fantasy managers may have been happy to have him back, but not as happy as Pacers fans were.

Both point guards were initially listed as questionable, but Indiana will have both available against their division rival. Haliburton is back after a three-game absence, which will likely push Bennedict Mathurin back to the bench and take away some of Andrew Nembhard’s playmaking upside. McConnell will fill out his typical role off the bench as a reserve guard, though his upside will be limited with Haliburton healthy.

Both players missed Monday’s game against the 76ers, which allowed Keaton Wallace to start at point guard.

With Caris LeVert (finger) sidelined on Monday, Atlanta’s other trade deadline acquisitions stepped up as scoring options. Mann and Georges Niang (18/4/3) combined to score 37 of the Hawks’ 49 bench points, which helped them secure the win over Philadelphia despite being shorthanded. Mann isn’t a fantasy-friendly option often, but he was able to make an impact in the box score on Monday. However, he isn’t a player that managers should be looking to roster.

After missing a month due to a lumbar fracture, Krejci was able to suit up against Philadelphia. It wasn’t a spectacular return to the rotation, but it was encouraging to see him back on the floor.

With Trae Young (quad) sidelined, Wallace slid into the starting lineup for the first time since January.

In four starts this season, he has averaged 13.5 points ,3.3 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 2.3 three-pointers per game. He should be considered as a deep-league streamer if Young misses more time this season.

Playing without Tyrese Haliburton for a third straight game, the Pacers starters did not have it in Chicago. Siakam shot 50 percent from the field, but the overall stat line did not provide much value beyond the points and assists.

Siakam and the Pacers will look to rebound on Tuesday when they face the Bucks.

The Bulls outscored the Pacers by a 40-21 margin during the second quarter on Monday. And with things not getting much better for the starters during the third, Pacers coach Rick Carlisle decided to roll with his seldom-used reserves in the fourth.

With Trae Young (quad) sidelined for this game, Daniels was able to step up on the offensive end as both a scorer and a playmaker.

With Tyrese Haliburton sidelined for a third straight game, it was Mathurin’s turn to fill the void on Monday. Unfortunately for fantasy managers hoping to benefit from this matchup, he provided minimal value in 23 minutes on the court. And with Tuesday’s game against the Bucks being far more critical from a playoff positioning standpoint, Mathurin and the other starters spent most of the second half on the bench. Johnny Furphy was one of the beneficiaries, as he accounted for four points, eight rebounds and three steals in 18 minutes off the bench. If Haliburton can play against Milwaukee, Mathurin will head to the bench, and Furphy may fall out of the rotation entirely.
