Nembhard returned to action on Saturday after a one-game absence, tallying 29 points and nine assists in a win over the Heat. If he’s unable to play on Monday, Quenton Jackson would likely shift back into the starting point guard role, with T.J. McConnell’s playing time increasing off the bench.

Herro returned to the starting lineup Saturday in his second game back from a toe injury. Somewhere along the way, the 25-year-old point guard also picked up a rib contusion. Now Herro is questionable against the Thunder on Sunday. Kel’el Ware had just two points with Herro starting Saturday and would seem to benefit if Herro is out Sunday.

As a team, the Heat shot 4-of-30 from beyond the arc in Saturday’s 123-99 loss. Powell was part of the problem, as he shot 1-of-7 from deep while Tyler Herro was 1-of-8. Fantasy managers can take solace in the fact that Powell has been highly productive on most nights, which should be an indicator of his ability to bounce back. He’ll look to do so in Miami’s final game of Week 12 on Sunday against the Thunder.

As much as a player can in a game his team lost by a 123-99 final score, Jaquez had a good night. He finished a blocked shot and a three-pointer shy of a complete stat line while shooting 50 percent from the field. That said, Jaquez is ranked outside the top-150 in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. With the Heat now close to full strength, his production off the bench is something to watch, as Jaquez has been good enough to offer standard-league value thus far. Hopefully, that doesn’t change.

Saturday night was rough for Adebayo and the Heat, who never led against the Pacers. While effective as a rebounder, the Heat captain didn’t offer much value otherwise. This season hasn’t been what many fantasy managers hoped it would be for Bam, as he’s ranked outside the top-50 in per-game value. Adebayo and the Heat will look to redeem themselves on Sunday against the Thunder.

After coming off the bench in his first game back from a toe injury, Herro was back in the starting lineup on Saturday. He finished with a complete stat line, but the Heat were blown out and the other starters struggled. Where Herro is within the lineup doesn’t matter much, as he’ll provide solid fantasy value wherever. But it does affect Kel’el Ware, who tallied two points and three rebounds in 17 minutes off the bench. Ware can still offer reliable fantasy value, but he’s someone to watch with Herro back in the fold. The Heat visit Oklahoma City on Sunday.

Siakam had a rough night shooting the basketball, but he still managed to avoid missing double figures for the first time this season. While category league managers took a beating in the field-goal percentage category, Siakam did offer value in the rebound and assist categories. The Pacers open a four-game Week 13 on Monday against the Celtics.

Walker finished one rebound shy of his first double-double of the season, matching his previous high with the nine rebounds. While his playing time was pumped up somewhat due to Saturday’s game being a blowout, Walker has logged at least 15 minutes in 14 of his last 16 appearances. Don’t be surprised if he emerges as a silly-season standout, as the Pacers will want to see more of their 2023 lottery pick between now and the end of the season.

Outside of Andrew Nembhard, the Pacers did not have any standout scorers on Saturday. However, seven players finished in double figures, including Nesmith. He was just 1-of-5 from beyond the arc, but the Pacers’ wing was responsible for a team-high nine rebounds. Over the past two weeks, Nesmith has been close to a top-100 player in eight-cat formats. As long as he’s available, Aaron can offer late-round value the rest of the season.

Nembhard wasn’t available for Thursday’s win over the Hornets, and he was initially questionable for Saturday’s game with a sore lower back. He made up for lost time with an excellent showing against the Heat, leading seven Pacers in double figures while also dishing out nine assists without a turnover. Nembhard’s return did not push Quenton Jackson (six points, one rebound, one assist and one steal) to the bench, but it did lower the two-way contract guard’s streaming ceiling. The Pacers play four games in Week 13, starting with the Celtics on Monday.

Nembhard is back after a one-game absence, but his return does not push Jackson to the bench. Instead, Jay Huff heads to the bench, with Siakam serving as a small-ball center. Huff will remain in the rotation, but his value takes a hit with the move to the bench.

Saturday’s game will be the tenth that Jackson has missed since suffering a head injury, but the good news is that he is no longer in the league’s concussion protocol. According to Carlisle, the former first-round pick is now working on improving his conditioning and will miss at least one more week. Until Jackson can play, the Pacers will continue to rely on Jay Huff, Micah Potter and Tony Bradley at the center position.

Nembhard was a late scratch for Thursday’s win over the Hornets, with Quenton Jackson replacing him in the starting lineup. However, T.J. McConnell benefited the most from Nembhard’s absence and should be the preferred streamer if the Pacers play another game without their starting point guard.

For the first time since returning from a knee injury that sidelined him for over a month, Nesmith has reached double figures in three consecutive games. And despite shooting 40.5 percent from the field, the Pacers’ wing has offered top-100 value in eight- and nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. Nesmith is rostered in 34 percent of Yahoo! leagues, and he has the potential to be a “silly season” standout if he’s able to play starters’ minutes for the rest of the season.

While Andrew Nembhard being a late scratch did not change McConnell’s place within the Pacers’ rotation, it did free up more minutes for the veteran point guard. McConnell logged a season-high 28 minutes and finished with his best stat line of the season. He also finished with a season-high point total and matched his previous high in assists. Quenton Jackson was the starter, but he only played 18 minutes, finishing with four points, five assists, one steal and one blocked shot.

At long last, the Pacers’ 13-game losing streak is over, and Rick Carlisle has his 1,000th career win as an NBA head coach. Siakam made the game’s biggest shot, as his layup with 11.5 seconds remaining gave Indiana the lead for good. He finished with his fourth 30-point double-double of the season. As the Pacers continue to navigate this season without Tyrese Haliburton, Siakam has shouldered an extremely heavy workload as the lone player providing reliable fantasy value.

The Pacers won’t have Andrew Nembhard for Thursday’s game, as he has been sidelined with lower back tightness. Jackson will fill the resulting void in the starting lineup, raising his ceiling. However, with T.J. McConnell off the bench, fantasy managers can leave Jackson on the waiver wire.

Nembhard was added to the injury report this morning, which is usually not a great sign. The guard has only missed one game so far this season, but his minutes have fluctuated as he’s battled some minor injuries. If Nembhard did miss, that would likely mean extra minutes for T.J. McConnell.

Jackson will miss a ninth consecutive game as he remains in the league’s concussion protocol.

Herro looked like his usual self coming off the bench in this one following an 11-game absence recovering from a right toe injury. He shot the ball well overall but was just 1-of-4 from three-point range in his first game action since December 9. It was an off night for Miami overall as they shot just 35.7 percent from the floor as a team and failed to break the century mark. It’s been a frustrating season for Herro, and fantasy managers, as injuries have limited to just seven games after he played 77 of 82 last year. He shouldn’t have too many restrictions from a minutes standpoint moving forward.

Powell knocked down a pair of three-pointers to open the contest but never really got going afterwards as Miami went ice-cold from the floor in the second half and fell behind by nearly 30 points by the middle of the fourth quarter. The 32-year-old has been a revelation for fantasy managers in his Heat debut, averaging 24.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.2 blocks through 32 games. He’s scored at least 21 points in seven consecutive games since December 26.

Huff, who leads the NBA in blocks this season, knocked down 4-of-7 from three-point range and matched his previous season-high mark that he set back on November 19 in a win over the Hornets. Unfortunately, his offensive outburst wasn’t enough as Indiana dropped their 13th straight game and remain winless since December 8. The 27-year-old shot blocker is averaging 2.2 per-game, which gives him some relevance in deeper fantasy leagues.

Siakam did his best to spark a late rally for the Pacers as he scored 13 of his 22 points in the second half, including a three-point play in the final minute to slash the deficit to a single point. It still wasn’t enough to help Indiana avoid their 13th consecutive loss. The 31-year-old scoring machine has been on fire of late, averaging a robust 26.3 points over his last four games, providing fifth-round fantasy value during that span.

Powell got off to a sizzling-hot start on the second night of a back-to-back, going 6-of-7 from the field, including 5-of-6 from three-point range, to enter halftime with 20 points. He kept the momentum going down the home stretch, finishing 9-of-12 from beyond the arc, notching his second 30-point performance in his last three games. The unheralded 32-year-old scoring machine has benefitted greatly from Miami’s new run-and-gun style offense in his Heat debut, delivering third-round fantasy value, averaging 24.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.2 blocks through 31 games. The Heat are in line for a four-game week coming up that includes a rematch against Minnesota before road tilts against the Bulls, Pacers and Thunder.

Jović, who came into this one nursing a left groin contusion, went 6-of-10 from the floor, scoring 15 points in the opening half as Miami built an early advantage. The 22-year-old cooled off considerably over the final three quarters but still managed to turn in a respectable all-around effort. He’s been excellent over the past two weeks, averaging 14.8 points and 5.3 rebounds over his last six games during that span. He’s worthy of a speculative fantasy roster spot, especially in deeper leagues.

Ware remains one of this season’s great fantasy wild cards — dominant one night, invisible the next.

The Pacers hold the worst record in the NBA after dropping their 12th consecutive game in this one.

The 26-year-old wing led the Pacers with 18 first-half points on 5-of-10 shooting, including 4-of-8 from downtown and has topped 29 minutes in three straight contests. He should be rostered in all fantasy leagues.
