Andrew Nembhard Fantasy Stats

Indiana Pacers guards Andrew Nembhard (back) and T.J. McConnell (hamstring) will remain out on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets. Both players exited the lineup at the start of the month and will sit out a fifth consecutive game, as Nembhard is dealing with a back problem and McConnell is managing a hamstring injury. With the two playmakers sidelined, Indiana will continue to rely more on Quenton Jackson, Ethan Thompson, and Kam Jones in the backcourt. Of the trio, Thompson had the best outing in Tuesday's loss to Minnesota, tallying a team-high 17 points. Thompson formed the starting backcourt with Jackson, who finished with nine points, four assists, and one steal.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) will remain sidelined on Tuesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He's on the injury report due to thoracic and lumbar injury management, sitting out a fourth consecutive contest. With Nembhard out of the picture, Quenton Jackson has enjoyed a stint as a starter and is expected to lead the backcourt again, especially with T.J. McConnell (hamstring) also unavailable. Jackson has averaged 13.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.3 steals per game since Nembhard departed the lineup. Kam Jones and Ethan Thompson also benefit from Nembhard's absence.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) will not play Sunday against Cleveland as he continues to manage a lingering back issue. His absence should keep Quenton Jackson in a starting role after he produced 16 points, two three-pointers, three rebounds, five assists and one steal in 25 minutes during his last outing. Ethan Thompson logged 30 minutes off the bench and could remain in the rotation, while Taelon Peter offers deep-league streaming appeal for managers chasing three-pointers. With multiple Pacers guards sidelined, Jackson looks like the safest short-term assist streamer until Nembhard returns.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Nembhard will miss his second straight game due to back soreness. The Pacers aren't playing for anything besides lottery odds right now, so they have little incentive to play anyone at less than 100 percent. It's unclear when Nembhard will return, but his next chance to play will come on Sunday. Quenton Jackson should see an increased role on Friday, but he hasn't done enough lately to warrant streaming in most fantasy formats.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) will sit out Wednesday's game against Chicago for injury management after playing in five straight contests. Nembhard had taken on a bigger playmaking role lately with multiple double-digit assist games, so Indiana will need to adjust with him out of the backcourt rotation. With T.J. McConnell (hamstring) also out, Quenton Jackson and Ethan Thompson could see expanded minutes, with Jackson coming off a 10-point outing in 20 minutes. Kam Jones and Taelon Peter could also factor into the guard rotation if Indiana needs extra depth. In championship week, Nembhard's absence could push fantasy managers to find short-term guard help.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (calf) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers after recently playing through the same issue. He appears on track to remain in the starting lineup after strong back-to-back performances. Nembhard posted 13 points, seven rebounds, and 14 assists in 35 minutes Monday after finishing with 25 points and seven assists in his previous outing. He offers solid fantasy value while handling lead guard duties. T.J. McConnell could see extra ballhandling work if any limitations arise.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (calf) has been upgraded to available for Monday's contest against the Orlando Magic. The team initially listed him as questionable on the injury report. While Nembhard has been held back by various health issues in recent weeks, he had a great outing on Saturday against San Antonio, putting up 25 points and dishing out seven assists. Nembhard has also performed well against the Magic this season, averaging 19.5 points and 9.0 assists in 33.0 minutes per game.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (calf) is questionable for Saturday's game against San Antonio and could miss a fourth straight contest. Indiana's backcourt is dealing with multiple injuries, with T.J. McConnell (hamstring), Ben Sheppard (ankle), and Quenton Jackson (calf) also questionable, which could force rotation adjustments. Kam Jones could see increased usage after posting 14 points, four three-pointers, nine assists, and two steals in 27 minutes in his last start. He could be a deep-league streaming option if more minutes open up. Jarace Walker and Pascal Siakam (knee) may also take on more scoring depending on availability.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. He will miss a third consecutive game due to a right calf contusion. Meanwhile, T.J. McConnell (hamstring) has been cleared to play and will make another start at point guard. McConnell produced a 10-point, 10-assist double-double in 20 minutes on Tuesday against the Knicks. However, he could have a lighter workload on Wednesday due to the back-to-back situation, making him a risky fantasy option. With Nembhard out, Quenton Jackson and Kam Jones will also get more work in the backcourt.

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. Nembhard will miss his second straight game due to a bruised right calf. The expectation is that T.J. McConnell will move into the starting five once again. McConnell finished with nine points and 11 assists across 28 minutes of action on Sunday. He figures to play a similar role on Tuesday, which should make McConnell a viable streaming option.
