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.

Poeltl has not appeared in a game since December 21, and it’s unknown when that will change. With that being the case, now is a good time to add Collin Murray-Boyles if he’s sitting on the waiver wire. Sandro Mamukelashvili is another suitable option, but he does not offer CMB’s ceiling in category leagues.

Ingram will miss a second consecutive game with a sprained right thumb. Ja’Kobe Walter started Friday’s loss to the Celtics, but Scottie Barnes’ return could bump the second-year guard to the bench.

Barnes is back after a one-game absence. Sandro Mamukelashvili replaced him in the starting lineup, but the Raptors could choose to start both since RJ Barrett and Brandon Ingram are out. Even if he comes off the bench, Mamu will play quality minutes.

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.

Ingram did not play in Friday’s loss to the Celtics, with Ja’Kobe Walter moving into the starting lineup. Walter would likely retain that role if Ingram remains out, and he would be worth the streaming risk in deep leagues.

Quickley has shouldered more of the offensive workload for the injury-plagued Raptors, who were without a trio of key contributors in this one with Scottie Barnes (knee), Brandon Ingram (thumb) and Jakob Poeltl (back) all on the shelf. They also lost RJ Barrett to an apparent left ankle injury during the late stages of the fourth quarter. The speedy 26-year-old guard dished out a season-high 13 helpers but it still wasn’t enough. He should see an uptick in creation opportunities and three-point attempts with Barnes, Ingram and Barret out of the mix, which provides a short-term boost to his fantasy appeal. The Raptors are back in action with back-to-back contests against the 76ers starting on Sunday night.

The absence of several key contributors due to injuries should lead to increased touches and creation possessions for Walter moving forward, which provides an immediate boost to his fantasy profile. The 21-year-old lacks significant scoring upside on a consistent basis, but the opportunities are there on a short-term basis with RJ Barrett (ankle), Scottie Barnes (knee), Brandon Ingram (thumb) and Jakob Poeltl (back) all dealing with injuries. He’s worthy of a speculative roster spot in deeper fantasy leagues.

Barrett injured his left ankle during the fourth quarter of Friday’s game and was ruled out late in the period. He finished with 19 points (6-of-15 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, seven assists and three three-pointers. More will be learned about the severity of Barrett’s injury on Saturday, and the Raptors were without Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes for Friday’s game.

With Scottie Barnes also out, the Raptors will lean heavily on Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett for their offense.

Barnes suffered a right knee injury in Wednesday’s game against the Hornets, but was able to finish the contest. Now the 24-year-old small forward has been ruled out for Friday’s game against the Celtics with a right knee sprain.

Jackson has not appeared in a game since December 22, as he remains in the league’s concussion protocol.

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.

Barnes briefly exited from Wednesday’s game against the Hornets due to a right knee injury, but he was able to return to finish out the game. However, he missed shootaround on Friday and is now expected to be sidelined. With Collin Murray-Boyles already starting, Sandro Mamukelashvili or Ochai Agbaji will likely start with Barnes expected out.

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.

An early exit from Brandon Ingram (thumb) resulted in Barrett leading the way offensively for the Raptors. He fell one point shy of matching his season high for scoring, which he set four days prior to this game. Barrett’s production has been up and down since he returned from a 15-game absence due to a knee injury. However, he was able to step up on offense in this game, which certainly didn’t hurt for fantasy managers. Still, his fantasy impact will continue to be limited due to his lack of production in other categories.

Though CMB didn’t do much scoring, he was able to dominate the glass for Toronto. He set a new career high for boards, which came two days after the best performance of his young career. CMB should continue to start, at least until Jakob Poeltl returns. His production may come inconsistently, but he continues to show that he holds enough value to be worth rostering in standard leagues.

Quickly has been an inconsistent producer for Toronto for most of the season, and this recent stretch is no exception. He has scored at least 20 points in four of his last seven games, but also has a four-point dud mixed in. However, the highlight of this game for him wasn’t in the box score. Quickley hit a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the Raptors their third straight win. Next up on the schedule is an outing in Boston on Friday.

Ingram played 11 minutes before exiting with what the Raptors are describing as a sprained right thumb. While Jamison Battle has picked up a few minutes off the bench, Ja’Kobe Walter and Ochai Agbaji are the players who fantasy managers should watch for the rest of Wednesday’s game.
