Leonard has completed treatment to reduce swelling in his left knee and he will be re-evaluated in one week, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Leonard will now begin the next phase of his rehab, and while he'll be re-evaluated by Nov. 10, it's still unlikely we'll see him back on the floor until the end of November. Ja'Kobe Walter should continue to start while Leonard is sidelined, and it'll be Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett running the show on offense.

Johnson (lower body injury management) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against Toronto.

Johnson has already missed three games. However, it doesn't appear he will be sidelined Wednesday versus the Raptors. The 30-year-old veteran hasn't played well throughout the 2026-27 campaign, averaging a career-low 8.0 points along with 5.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals over 26.3 minutes per contest in three regular-season appearances.

Diallo (wrist) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.

Diallo played through the wrist issue Monday and logged six minutes off the bench in a 118-110 loss to Portland. He should see a similar workload Wednesday.

Jones (hamstring) is out for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.

Jones is still battling bilateral hamstring problems. He can be considered out indefinitely until the Nuggets offer another update on his recovery.

Zubac (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.

Zubac has missed the last five regular-season games due to an ankle injury. While it's not clear how healthy he is, the questionable designation at least suggests he's moving in the right direction. If Zubac is sidelined again Wednesday versus Memphis, Jay Huff is expected to remain in the starting lineup at the five.

Nesmith (rest) is not listed on the injury report for Wednesday's game in Memphis.

Nesmith sat out Monday's 108-104 loss to the Hawks for rest purposes, but he'll be back in action Wednesday evening. Nesmith is averaging 12.2 points, 1.8 assists and 1.7 triples per game this season.

Oubre (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.

Oubre is trying to move past a knee contusion Wednesday. Less playing time would be available for Jarace Walker if Oubre is healthy enough to play.

Siakam (rest) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against Memphis.

Siakam didn't play in Monday's 108-104 loss to the Hawks, the second of a back-to-back for Indiana. He will return to action Wednesday, meaning Jalen Slawson, who started against Atlanta, will presumably head back to the bench.

Nembhard (neck) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's meeting in Memphis.

Nembhard is set to return from a one-game absence, which should prompt Braden Smith's return to the second unit. Nembhard is averaging 18.5 points, 7.3 assists and 2.5 triples per game this season.

Nance (illness) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.

Nance is feeling well enough to suit up for the Pacers on Wednesday. His streaming appeal is contingent upon the status of Ivica Zubac, who has a chance to return from an ankle sprain Wednesday.
