Potter (triceps) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Potter suffered an injury late in Sunday's loss to the Bucks that has been labeled a right triceps strain, putting his availability for Tuesday into question. With Pascal Siakam (knee) doubtful and Obi Toppin (foot) also questionable, Kobe Brown and Jalen Slawson are candidates to see extended opportunities if Potter and others are ultimately ruled out.

Toppin is questionable for Tuesday's game against New York due to right foot injury management.

Toppin was also listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against Milwaukee and was ultimately cleared to play, so it seems this could be a precautionary listing. The Pacers should have more to share on his status as tipoff approaches.

Sheppard (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

A sprained left ankle could cost Sheppard a second consecutive outing Tuesday. The Pacers could be severely undermanned versus New York, so the team could need to call upon some of their two-way players from the G League's Noblesville Boom to help pick up the slack and soak up extra minutes.

Jackson (calf) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Jackson returned from a two-game absence Sunday but is now iffy for Tuesday's contest due to a right calf strain. He could see an uptick in playing time if active, with Andrew Nembhard (calf), T.J. McConnell (hamstring), Aaron Nesmith (ankle) and Ben Sheppard (ankle) also listed as questionable. However, Kam Jones could be the one to see increased opportunities if Jackson is ultimately ruled out.

McConnell is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks due to right hamstring soreness.

McConnell was cleared to play Sunday against Milwaukee after nursing a right hamstring issue over the weekend, so the fact that he's now back on the injury report means he's not yet completely over the injury. The team will presumably monitor him closely leading up to Tuesday's tipoff to determine whether he'll be able to take the court.

Dieng (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.

Dieng is at risk of missing a third consecutive contest due to an illness. Either Ryan Rollins or AJ Green would start in the backcourt if Dieng isn't feeling well enough to give it a go Tuesday, while Kyle Kuzma would also see a boost in streaming appeal in this scenario.

Post (foot) won't play Monday against the Warriors.

Coach Steve Kerr mentioned in his pregame presser that Post was banged up after Sunday's game against the Knicks, per Nick Friedell of The Athletic, and the big man has since been downgraded to out. Look for Will Richard, Gary Payton and Malevy Leons to be candidates for an increase in playing time as a result.

Nembhard (calf) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.

Nembhard sat out Sunday's contest and could miss a second consecutive game due to a right calf contusion. T.J. McConnell (hamstring) started in Nembhard's place last time out, but with McConnell also listed as questionable for Tuesday, Kam Jones could see expanded opportunities if both guards are ultimately ruled out.

Turner is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers due to a right calf strain.

Turner has recently been dealing with right patella tendinitis, though it now seems he's picked up a calf injury. His status for Tuesday will presumably depend on how he fares during shootaround and warmups ahead of tipoff.

Porter (knee) is off the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.

Porter sat out Sunday's win over the Pacers, but he's ready to roll for Tuesday. The combo guard has averaged 16.8 points, 6.3 assists, 5.4 rebounds and 2.4 steals in 31.7 minutes per contest in his last nine games, shooting 51.3 percent from the field during this stretch.
