Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (hand) will be sidelined for his team's Tuesday matchup with the Jazz due to a left hand strain. The team also ruled out Andrew Nembhard (back), Pascal Siakam (rest), and Bennedict Mathurin (rest), so it's hard to know if Nesmith's injury is something that will cost him time going forward or not. He has scored at least 14 points in each of his last five games, and he's establishing himself with a regular role in the lineup. Without so many starters on Tuesday, the team will likely lean heavily on Ben Sheppard, Johnny Furphy, Jarace Walker, and Quenton Jackson to help fill minutes and production on the wings.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) will not play on Tuesday, as the team listed him out due to low back injury management. Nembhard played 32 minutes against the Rockets on Monday, finishing with seven points and eight assists in the team's four-point defeat. He has dished out at least eight assists in six straight games and has been running the offense with lots of efficiency. Without him and T.J. McConnell (knee) on Tuesday, Quenton Jackson, Kam Jones, and Ethan Thompson could all get work at point guard, with Thompson and Jackson probable on their two-way contracts. Without Nembhard, Pascal Siakam (rest), Bennedict Mathurin (rest), and Aaron Nesmith (hand), the Pacers will provide elite value for DFS value plays and streaming options against the Jazz on Tuesday night.

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (rest) will not play Tuesday night against the Jazz when his team closes out a back-to-back set. Siakam played 33 minutes on Monday against the Rockets and had 27 points, five assists, and four rebounds. He's been carrying the load for the Pacers' offense this season, and he's one of several key starters getting Tuesday's game off. In his absence, Jarace Walker, Jay Huff, and Micah Potter (hip, questionable) could get more work at power forward, with Isaiah Jackson getting more work at center. It will definitely be a makeshift rotation for the Pacers on Tuesday, but the replacement players should bring DFS and streaming value in a favorable matchup against Utah.

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bennedict Mathurin (rest) will not play on Tuesday when his team finishes their back-to-back with a home game against the Jazz. Mathurin has played four games since returning from a three-week absence due to a thumb injury, and he played 34 minutes and chipped in 25 points in Monday's close loss to the Rockets. Mathurin's minutes restriction seems to be lifting, and he should be able to continue his return to a full workload on Friday in Milwaukee. It's good news for his future availability that this is being listed as rest and not injury management. Since Mathurin is one of many Pacers getting the night off on Tuesday, Ben Sheppard, Quenton Jackson, Jerace Walker, and Ethan Thompson will all likely get big minutes.
