"The Pacers are already without six players. All-Star point guard Tyrese Haliburton was lost for the season to a torn Achilles tendon suffered in Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Forward Bennedict Mathurin scored 31 points in two games before being sidelined by a toe injury. Shooting guard Andrew Nembhard just returned after missing six games with a shoulder injury."

Nesmith was averaging a career-best 15.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in 11 games. He scored a career-high 31 points in the Pacers' only win against Golden State on Nov. 1. The Pacers began the night 1-11."
Aaron Nesmith will miss at least four weeks with a left knee injury after being hurt in the Pacers' loss at Phoenix. He is not in a brace and is walking, with recovery timing still unclear and the possibility of a shorter absence. The Pacers are already down six players, including Tyrese Haliburton, who suffered a season-ending torn Achilles in Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Bennedict Mathurin is sidelined by a toe injury, Andrew Nembhard recently returned from a shoulder injury, and Obi Toppin has a stress fracture in his right foot. Nesmith had been averaging a career-best 15.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in 11 games.
