Pacers' T.J. McConnell: Expected to miss one month
McConnell (hamstring) is expected to miss at least one month of action, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
This is a massive blow for Indiana, as they are already short on ball-handlers with Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) out for the season. With McConnell expected to miss at least a month, his earliest possible return would be on Nov. 11 against the Jazz. The Pacers signed Cameron Payne to a training camp contract Thursday after waiving Delon Wright, and Andrew Nembhard is now likely to see even more ball-handling reps to open the season.

Pacers' Cameron Payne: Signs with Indiana
Payne signed a training camp deal with the Pacers on Thursday.
In a related move, the Pacers waived Delon Wright (head). The Pacers are in need of some backcourt depth, and it's worth noting that T.J. McConnell is dealing with a hamstring injury. Payne holds career regular-season averages of 7.8 points, 3.2 assists and 2.0 rebounds.

Pacers' Jarace Walker: Productive off bench
Walker produced 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in 24 minutes of Tuesday's 135-134 preseason win over Minnesota.
Walker suffered an ankle injury during last season's Eastern Conference Finals and missed the entire Pacers NBA Finals run, but he's been a full go at training camp and didn't have any restrictions for the preseason opener. Head coach Rick Carlisle has pointed to Walker as one of several players he's looking for to step up in the absence of Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles), and he certainly got off on the right foot Tuesday.

Pacers' Andrew Nembhard: Assumes starting role
Nembhard amassed eight points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 11 minutes during Tuesday's preseason win over Minnesota.
As expected, Nembhard started at the point guard position for the Pacers, taking on the role as a result of Tyrese Haliburton's Achilles injury. While he wasn't overly productive, Nembhard certainly looked comfortable running the offense, playing on and off the ball as required. He is going to be in the discussion for the Most Improved Player award this season and should be looking at upwards of 32 minutes per game on most nights.

Pacers' Johnny Furphy: Productive in 20 minutes Tuesday
Furphy closed with 12 points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 20 minutes during Tuesday's preseason victory over the Timberwolves.
Furphy was one of only three Pacers to play at least 20 minutes, making the most of his time on the floor. Both T.J. McConnell (hamstring) and Delon Wright (head) were injured during the course of the game, perhaps contributing to Furphy's playing time. Nonetheless, it would appear as though the young Australian could be in for a larger role this season, with Indiana likely solidifying its depth chart prior to the return of Tyrese Haliburton. While there are no guarantees, Furphy is worth keeping an eye on moving forward.

Pacers' Isaiah Jackson: Struggles in starting role
Jackson finished with two points (0-2 FG, 2-2 FT) and three rebounds in nine minutes during Tuesday's 135-134 preseason win over the Timberwolves.
Jackson was given the starting nod, perhaps an indication that he will fill that role come Opening Night. He picked up three fouls in his first three minutes, contributing to the fact that he played just nine minutes in total. Meanwhile, Jay Huff logged 19 minutes off the bench, providing serviceable production on both ends of the floor. It appears as though the center rotation could be hard to nail down for fantasy managers, with Tony Bradley also in the mix.

Pacers' RayJ Dennis: Efficient from downtown in win
Dennis contributed 16 points (4-11 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT) and five assists across 19 minutes in Tuesday's 135-134 preseason win over the Timberwolves in overtime.
Dennis torched the nets from beyond the arc and finished as Indiana's leading scorer, posting 14 of his 16 points in the fourth quarter. Additionally, the two-way player dished out a game-high-tying five assists. The 24-year-old point guard appeared in just 11 regular-season outings with the parent club last season. However, he could see increased playing time at the NBA level if injuries arise in the team's relatively thin backcourt, which is missing Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles).

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Chips in 14 points in preseason win
Siakam supplied 14 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and two steals across 14 minutes in Tuesday's 135-134 preseason victory over the Timberwolves in overtime.
Siakam saw limited action in the Pacers' preseason opener but still finished as the team's second-leading scorer. The star forward also tied the team-high mark in steals. The 31-year-old is expected to serve as Indiana's clear top option with Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) sidelined for the entire season.

Pacers' Delon Wright: Won't return vs. Minnesota
Wright (head) won't return to Tuesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Jeremiah Johnson of FanDuel Sports Network Indiana reports.
Wright bumped heads with an opposing player in the second quarter and exited to the locker room before being ruled out for the remainder of the game. He'll finish with two points (0-1 FG, 2-2 FT) across four minutes. The veteran guard's next opportunity to play will come Saturday against Oklahoma City.

Pacers' Delon Wright: Exits to locker room vs. Minnesota
Wright exited to the locker room after sustaining an apparent head injury in the second quarter of Tuesday's preseason game against Minnesota, Chris Hine of the Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Wright bumped heads with an opposing player and hit the floor hard before being helped to the locker room. If the veteran guard doesn't return, Quenton Jackson, RayJ Dennis and Taelon Peter are candidates for an uptick in playing time the rest of the way.

Pacers' T.J. McConnell: Won't return Tuesday
McConnell (hamstring) will not return to Tuesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Jeremiah Johnson of FanDuel Sports Network Indiana reports.
McConnell went down with the hamstring injury in the second quarter against Minnesota. The veteran guard logged only eight minutes Tuesday, finishing with seven points, two rebounds, three assists and one steal. The next chance for him to return to the floor will be Saturday against the Thunder.

Pacers' T.J. McConnell: Exits to locker room Tuesday
McConnell exited to the locker room after sustaining an apparent left thigh injury in the second quarter of Tuesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
McConnell reached for his upper thigh and motioned to the bench before committing a foul with 4:41 remaining in the second quarter. In the likely event the veteran point guard doesn't return to the preseason opener, Quenton Jackson, RayJ Dennis and Delon Wright are candidates for a bump in minutes the rest of the way.

Pacers' Isaiah Jackson: Will play and start vs. Minnesota
Jackson (Achilles) will be in the starting lineup during Tuesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Jackson has been working his way back from tearing his Achilles tendon in November of the 2024-25 campaign. Although it's a tough injury to recover from and takes a long time to heal, he's clearly making strides to do so, playing as a starter in this preseason game.

Pacers' James Wiseman: Available Tuesday
Wiseman (Achilles) is available for Tuesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Wiseman will return to game action for Indiana's preseason opener after tearing his left Achilles tendon in the 2024-25 regular-season opener. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft has an opportunity to carve out a meaningful role this season while competing for minutes with Isaiah Jackson, Jay Huff and Tony Bradley.

Pacers' Kam Jones: Expected to miss time
Jones (back) is likely going to be sidelined for a few weeks, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports Monday.
The No. 38 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, Jones is likely to miss all of preseason following this news. He was considered a long shot to crack the rotation for Opening Night, and it's likely he begins his professional career in the G League.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Won't play Tuesday
Sheppard (undisclosed) won't play in Tuesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
It's not immediately clear what type of injury Sheppard is dealing with. However, coach Rick Carlisle expects him to return at some point during the preseason. Sheppard's next chance to play comes Saturday against the Thunder.

Pacers' Johnny Furphy: Participating in training camp
Furphy (rest) is participating in training camp ahead of the team's preseason opener against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.
Furphy missed time at the end of Summer League for rest purposes, but he is seemingly good to go for the start of the preseason. Furphy could be in line for an increased role in his second season after averaging 2.1 points and 1.4 rebounds in 7.6 minutes per game across 50 regular-season contests during his rookie campaign.

Pacers' Quenton Jackson: Back in action
Jackson (leg) participated in a team scrimmage Sunday, Alex Golden of the 'Setting the Pace' podcast reports.
Jackson dealt with a leg injury throughout Summer League, but he appears to be in better health as he is participating in team scrimmages. He will have an opportunity to return to the lineup during Tuesday's preseason game against the Timberwolves.

Pacers' James Wiseman: Participating in scrimmages
Wiseman (Achilles) is participating in scrimmages ahead of the Pacers' preseason opener against the Timberwolves on Tuesday, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
After tearing his left Achilles in the 2024-25 regular-season opener, Wiseman appears to be on track to return during the preseason. The 24-year-old center has an opportunity to carve out a meaningful role for the Pacers in the 2025-26 campaign, competing for playing time with Isaiah Jackson (Achilles), Jay Huff and Tony Bradley.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Included on Indiana's camp roster
Slawson is included on Indiana's training camp roster.
Slawson is on an Exhibit 10 contract, meaning the Pacers are securing his G League rights. Slawson is expected to suit up for the Noblesville Boom for the 2025-26 campaign.
