Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Starting versus Miami
Slawson will start in Sunday's game against the Heat, according to Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star.
Kobe Brown was considered the favorite to start in place of Jarace Walker (back). However, Slawson will be the one to take Walker's spot. In two starts this season, Slawson is averaging 10.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 2.5 blocks and 1.5 steals across 32.0 minutes.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Receives just four minutes in loss
Slawson registered zero points (0-1 FG), one assist and one steal in four minutes during Friday's 114-113 loss to the Clippers.
Slawson had averaged 7.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.6 steals, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 three-pointers in 25.8 minutes per game over his five appearances after signing a two-way deal with the Pacers, but despite being active Friday, he was barely featured in the rotation. The third-year forward will be eligible to play in seven of Indiana's remaining eight games, but unless the Pacers shut down multiple other key players, he could struggle to see enough minutes to make for a reliable fantasy option.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Inactive again Wednesday
The Pacers list Slawson (two-way) as out for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.
Indiana will have the same 12 players available Wednesday as they did in Monday's 128-126 win over Orlando, so Slawson and the Pacers' other two two-way players (Ethan Thompson and Taelon Peter) will head to the bench. The 16-56 Pacers have little at stake beyond draft positioning as the season winds down, so expect the team to limit or hold out multiple veteran players with minor injuries in their remaining nine games after Wednesday. Slawson will be eligible to play in eight of those contests, and he could be worth a look in fantasy leagues if the Pacers do in fact opt to rest other key rotation options. Through his first five appearances with Indiana, Slawson has averaged 7.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.6 steals, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 three-pointers in 25.6 minutes.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Remaining out Monday
The Pacers list Slawson (two-way) as out for Monday's game against the Magic.
Twelve players will suit up for the Pacers on Monday, and that will be enough for the club to hold Slawson out for the night in order to preserve his availability moving forward. The two-way player will be inactive for the second game in a row, but after Monday, he'll be eligible to play in eight of Indiana's remaining 10 contests. Since signing his two-way deal in late February, Slawson has been productive when he's been included in the rotation. Over his five appearances (two starts) for the Pacers, Slawson has averaged 7.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.6 steals, 1.6 blocks and 1.2 three-pointers in 25.6 minutes.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Inactive Saturday
Slawson (two-way) is listed out for Saturday's game against San Antonio.
Slawson has made waves recently for the shorthanded Pacers, having averaged 9.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.0 steals, 2.0 blocks and 29.5 minutes over his last four appearances (two starts). However, Slawson has a limited amount of availability for the rest of the season due to his status as a two-way player, so the Pacers will elect to keep him inactive Saturday with Indiana expected to get multiple players back from injuries. After Saturday, Slawson will be eligible to play in eight of the Pacers' remaining 11 games.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Provides stellar line as starter
Slawson generated 17 points (6-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal across 37 minutes Wednesday in the Pacers' 127-119 loss to the Trail Blazers.
With Indiana holding out seven players for Wednesday's contest, Slawson entered the starting five for the second time in three games and came through with a magnificent all-around line for those that streamed him into fantasy lineups or used him in DFS. After converting on an unsustainably low 27.3 percent of his field-goal attempts through his first four games with the Pacers, Slawson enjoyed some positive regression Wednesday and coupled his improved shooting with strong outputs in the defensive categories. While he shouldn't be counted on to provide this level of offensive production moving forward, Slawson -- who has averaged 2.3 blocks and 1.3 steals in 37 games in the G League this season -- could prove to be a major asset in the defensive categories if he's able to maintain a regular 25-plus-minute role for the banged-up Pacers. Fantasy managers should bear in mind, however, that Slawson will have some limited availability moving forward while he's signed to a two-way contract; he's eligible to play in eight of the Pacers' remaining 12 contests.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Jumping into starting lineup
Slawson is part of the first unit for Wednesday's game against Portland, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Slawson will make his second career start after making his starting debut Sunday. In his last three appearances, Slawson is averaging 7.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.7 blocks across 27 minutes.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Another five defensive stats
Slawson totaled eight points (2-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, three assists, two blocks and three steals in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 136-110 loss to the Knicks.
Slawson continues to deliver on the defensive end, having now recorded 12 combined steals and blocks in his past three games. While managers could look at him as a viable streaming option, his availability is likely to fluctuate based on who else is available on any given night for the Pacers. At this point, he is too risky to roster permanently but can be added as a streamer when available to play.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Not starting Tuesday
Slawson won't start Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
Kobe Brown will rejoin the starting five Tuesday, pushing Slawson to the second unit. The two-way player is still likely to see meaningful playing time in the front end of this back-to-back set due to Pascal Siakam (knee) and Micah Potter (triceps) being sidelined.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Making first NBA start Sunday
Slawson is in the Pacers' starting lineup against the Bucks on Sunday, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Sunday will be Slawson's 15th regular-season appearance and first NBA start since entering the league in 2023. In his last outing against the Suns on Thursday, Slawson played 32 minutes and finished with 10 points, eight rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block. He'll join T.J. McConnell, Andrew Nembhard, Jarace Walker and Ivica Zubac in the starting lineup.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Turns heads with loaded line
Slawson notched 10 points (3-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 32 minutes during Thursday's 123-108 loss to Phoenix.
Making just his second appearance at the NBA level this season, Slawson made the most of his playing time and recorded an impressive stat line. If he continues to see decent playing time off the bench, Slawson might be a player worth keeping close tabs on as a streaming alternative in deep formats. However, he won't have upside when the Pacers are at full strength, which they weren't close to Thursday.

Pacers' Jalen Slawson: Gets two-way deal with Indiana
The Pacers intend to sign Slawson to a two-way contract, Tony East of Forbes.com reports Friday.
The Pacers had an open two-way slot for Slawson after converting Quenton Jackson to a standard contract. Slawson has spent the entire season in the G League with the Noblesville Bloom, where he is averaging 17.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.8 threes, 1.8 blocks and 1.3 steals over 34.2 minutes per game. He last saw NBA regular-season action during his rookie year in 2023-24 as a member of the Kings, when he averaged 3.1 minutes per game across 12 outings.

Magic's Jalen Slawson: Let go by Orlando
The Magic waived Slawson on Saturday, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Slawson was unable to obtain a regular-season roster spot after signing an Exhibit 10 contract earlier this offseason. He is now set to spend the 2024-25 campaign with the Osceola Magic of the G League.

Magic's Jalen Slawson: Reaches deal with Orlando
Slawson signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Magic on Wednesday.
Slawson spent the 2023-24 campaign on a two-way deal with the Kings and appeared in 12 games at the NBA level, averaging just 3.1 minutes per contest. He became an unrestricted free agent this summer after the Kings opted not to extend him a qualifying offer, and he'll now join Orlando for training camp with the hope of securing a spot on the 15-man roster or a two-way spot. If Slawson is cut before the start of the regular season, the Magic would retain his G League rights.

Kings' Jalen Slawson: Cracks rotation
Slawson finished Monday's 129-93 loss to the Pelicans with four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one block over 12 minutes.
Slawson played a season-high 12 minutes thanks to numerous injuries. Keon Ellis (ankle) and Sasha Vezenkov (thumb) were ruled out prior to tipoff, while Chris Duarte (hand) and Keegan Murray (back) left the contest early. Kevin Huerter also played through a finger injury that sidelined him for the team's previous contest. If the Kings remain shorthanded moving forward, Slawson could carve out a solid bench role, but his fantasy value is completely dependent on injuries.

Kings' Jalen Slawson: Not listed in injury report
Slawson (illness) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Lakers.
Slawson is on a two-way contract with the Kings and is not expected to be in the rotation most nights. He should add depth to the bench but not much else. Slawson has yet to make his season debut with the Kings and is likely to spend most of his season in the G League.

Kings' Jalen Slawson: Questionable for Friday
Slawson (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors.
Slawson is on a two-way contract with the Kings and is not expected to be in the rotation most nights. If he remains out, his next chance to play is Oct. 29 against the Lakers.
