Aaron Nesmith (ankle) remains inactive Monday for Pacers

Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (ankle) is out for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors.

What It Means:

Nesmith hasn't played since the All-Star break due to an ankle injury, but he's making progress and could return for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Andrew Nembhard and Bennedict Mathurin should see additional minutes again on Monday night.

numberFire's models project Nembhard for 32.4 minutes and 23.5 FanDuel points on Monday. Mathurin is projected for 25.3 FanDuel points in the same amount of playing time as Nembhard. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Pacers' implied total (125.25) and the game total (244.5) are both the highest of the day.
