Nesmith has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for Sunday's game against Miami due to a cervical strain.
Nesmith was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's game due to lower-back soreness, but the Heat have since reclassified his injury. The cervical strain is likely to keep the veteran wing out against Miami, with his next opportunity to play arriving Wednesday against Chicago. Ben Sheppard, Jalen Slawson, Quenton Jackson and Kobe Brown are all candidates to enter the Pacers' starting lineup in Nesmith's expected absence.
