There was some surprise regarding the Pacers’ decision to play Zubac and Andrew Nembhard (8/5/7/2) in both games of their back-to-back. And while head coach Rick Carlisle said that they would be under minutes restrictions, the tandem played 29 and 32 minutes, respectively. Zubac had a decent night, recording a complete stat line. Regarding the minutes, the rivalry between the franchises may have been a factor. That’s something to be mindful of next week, as Tuesday’s rematch is the first game of a back-to-back for Indiana.

While his offense has been hit-or-miss, Walker has made strides in terms of his overall production since the All-Star break. He’s been a top-100 player in eight-cat formats since the break, doing enough to merit being rostered in 14-team leagues. As long as he’s healthy, Walker is one of the Pacers players whose minutes should be relatively safe for the rest of the season. The Pacers end Week 20 with a game against the Bucks on Sunday.
