Furphy was injured during the third quarter of Sunday’s loss to the Raptors, as he landed awkwardly after finishing a dunk. The second-year wing was taken back to the locker room via wheelchair, and an MRI on Monday confirmed fears that he’d suffered a torn ACL. Furphy started 21 of the 35 games he appeared in this season, averaging 5.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.7 three-pointers in 18.4 minutes. His absence opens up minutes for multiple players, most notably Jarace Walker and Ben Sheppard.

Furphy appeared to injure his right knee due to an awkward landing after throwing down a dunk during the third quarter. Requiring assistance to get off the court, the second-year wing was then taken to the locker room via wheelchair. Furphy finished with four points, two rebounds and three assists in 15 minutes.

While Aaron Nesmith is back after missing time with a knee injury, he will come off the bench. The lone change to the Pacers’ starting lineup is Furphy, who steps in for Quenton Jackson. There’s no need to consider streaming Furphy, but he’s worth watching for “silly season” prep.

Furphy’s coming off his best game of the season, as he tallied 18 points in 23 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Pelicans. He scored 13 points in the second half, and that may get him a few more minutes on Monday if he’s available. However, there’s no reason to roster Furphy in redraft leagues.

Due to a sprained left ankle, Furphy has not appeared in a game since November 3. While Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said that the second-year wing will be available for Wednesday’s game, fantasy managers should not interpret that as a guarantee that he’ll see the minutes needed to affect fantasy basketball. Leave Furphy on the waiver wire.

After hosting the Nets on Wednesday, the Pacers will hit the road for four games, starting Saturday in Denver. Furphy, who injured his left ankle during Monday’s loss to the Bucks, will not play, and there’s a chance he misses time beyond the road trip. To help account for their team’s many injuries, the Pacers received a hardship waiver to sign Cody Martin to a 10-day contract. He’s unlikely to impact fantasy basketball, but rotation minutes should be available.

Furphy, who missed four games earlier this season with a bone bruise in his left foot, sprained his left ankle during Monday’s game. He’s doubtful to return, and it’s fair to question Furphy’s availability for Wednesday’s game against the Nets. Under normal circumstances, Furphy’s availability would not significantly impact fantasy basketball. However, given the Pacers’ many injuries, they can’t afford to incur any more personnel losses.

Furphy is good to go after being listed as probable for Monday’s game. He’ll likely play between 22 and 25 minutes, but there isn’t much to be gained from streaming Furphy, even with the Pacers’ many injuries.

Furphy returned to action Saturday after a four-game absence, playing 23 minutes off the bench in a win over the Warriors. He’ll likely take on a similar workload against the Bucks, but that isn’t enough to make Furphy a streamable player, even with the Pacers’ many injuries.

Furphy is available after missing four games with a bone bruise in his left foot. He isn’t under a minutes restriction, and there will be an opportunity for Furphy to achieve fantasy relevance due to the Pacers’ many injuries. Jarace Walker remains the superior fantasy target, but keep an eye on Furphy.

Furphy missed the last four games with a bone bruise in his left foot, but is likely to return Saturday against the Warriors given his probable injury designation. The 20-year-old shooting guard isn’t fantasy-relevant at this point in his career, but should see decent rotation minutes with the Pacers missing many players due to injury.

Furphy, who was initially questionable for Friday’s game, will miss a fourth straight contest due to a bone bruise in his left foot. Taelon Peter’s return from a groin injury will give the Pacers a little more depth on the perimeter, but he isn’t worth the risk in most fantasy leagues.

Furphy missed Indiana’s last three games with a bone bruise in his left foot, while Peter missed the previous two with a strained right groin. While neither player had much of an impact on fantasy basketball when healthy, they’ll play rotation minutes once cleared due to the Pacers’ lengthy injury report.

Wednesday’s game will be the third that Furphy has missed with a sore left foot. While he did not impact fantasy basketball in his lone appearance of the season, rotation minutes would have been available due to the Pacers’ many injuries.

Furphy will miss a second consecutive game with a sore left foot. While he did not play rotation minutes in the season opener, Furphy may have had additional playing time due to the Pacers’ many injuries. However, his absence will not impact fantasy basketball.

Furphy played one minutes in double overtime in the season opener against the Thunder due to how many players had fouled out for Indiana. Furphy was unlikely to be part of the rotation against Memphis, so his absence won’t impact fantasy basketball.

Furphy only played one minute in Thursday’s loss to the Thunder, essentially checking in during double overtime after multiple Pacers had fouled out. He missed the end of the preseason with a sprained left ankle and is now dealing with a sore left foot. If Furphy cannot play on Saturday, Ben Sheppard and Taelon Peter will have added importance, especially with Andrew Nembhard (shoulder) already out. Sheppard is worth targeting, especially in deep leagues.

Furphy, who was sidelined at the end of the preseason with a sprained left ankle, is good to go for the Pacers’ regular-season opener on Thursday. Indiana’s wing depth could make it difficult for him to make a significant splash in fantasy basketball early on, but Furphy will be in the mix for rotation minutes. And it would be unsurprising if he earned an essential role off the bench. Add him to your watchlists.

Furphy injured his left ankle during Saturday’s win over the Thunder. Given that this is the preseason, there’s no need for the Pacers or Furphy to force the issue. The second-year guard will be a factor within the Pacers’ bench unit, but that isn’t enough to make Furphy a must-draft player in standard leagues.

If Monday’s game was the last of the summer for Furphy, he finished with a flourish. The Pacers wing produced one of the highlights of summer league with his second-quarter dunk over Chicago’s Noa Essengue, and he was impactful on both ends of the floor. According to Pacers team president Kevin Pritchard, Furphy has added 20 pounds since the end of the 2024-25 season. He clearly needed to get stronger after playing limited minutes as a rookie, and he appears to have done that. Pacers coach Rick Carlisle does not hesitate to go deep into his bench, so Furphy will have opportunities to earn more playing time.

After exiting Thursday’s game during the first half with a head injury, Furphy was back on the court Saturday afternoon. He was cold from deep, missing all six of his three-point attempts, but the 2024 second-round pick was able to make some things happen off the dribble. Furphy appeared in 50 games as a rookie but only averaged 7.6 minutes per appearance, so these games in Las Vegas are a big deal for him. He’ll look to remedy the three-point shooting woes when the Pacers face Chicago on Monday.

Furphy started Indiana’s summer league opener well, making three of four shots from the field and scoring eight points. Unfortunately, he took an inadvertent hit to the face during the second quarter and was helped back to the locker room. The good news is that Furphy was cleared of a concussion and watched the second half from the bench. While Tyrese Haliburton’s injury and Myles Turner’s exit do not impact him directly, that does not mean Furphy can’t earn rotation minutes next season. Pacers coach Rick Carlisle has not hesitated to go deep into his bench in recent years, meaning Furphy will have opportunities to contribute.

Furphy was not one of the Pacers moved into the starting lineup for Friday’s game, but the rookie played plenty since all five starters were unavailable. The performance was encouraging, as Furphy shot over 50 percent from the field and finished one blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. Friday’s defeat locks Indiana into the four-seed in the East, so Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Cavaliers may be another game where the starters are rested. If so, Furphy will be worth slotting into lineups in active deep leagues.

Furphy is good to go after being unavailable for Monday’s win over the Timberwolves. With most of the Pacers’ regular rotation also available, the minutes Furphy needs to achieve fantasy relevance won’t be there.

Furphy did not play in Monday’s win over the Timberwolves, missing out on an opportunity to play extended minutes with the Pacers down four starters. However, Myles Turner and Aaron Nesmith have already been cleared to play on Wednesday, so Furphy is unlikely to be in the rotation if available.

Furphy has only played a significant role during blowouts this season and didn’t see the floor at all in Indiana’s last game. They’re down four starters on Monday, so Furphy may have seen extra minutes if he was available, but that won’t be the case.
