Isaiah Jackson Fantasy Stats

Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson has signed a new deal with the organization on Friday. According to Shams Charania, Jackson has agreed to a three-year, $21 million deal with the Pacers. Jackson only appeared in five games last season before suffering a torn right Achilles tendon. Through four seasons, Jackson is averaging 7.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 0.7 assists across 15.0 minutes per game in 162 contests. The 23-year-old now has a clear path to playing time with Myles Turner departing this offseason. It's worth noting that Jackson hasn't played more than 16.8 minutes per game in a single season. It's unclear how he'll perform with such a high increase in playing time, but his fantasy value should be on the rise without Turner in the mix.

Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson (Achilles) is done for the season after suffering an injury during Friday's game. Jackson suffered a torn right Achilles tendon which was a non-contact play during Friday's loss. Fellow big man James Wiseman (Achilles) suffered a season-ending injury on Opening Night. The Pacers have now lost two big men what seems like only a handful of games. That leaves Obi Toppin and Jarace Walker as the primary big men behind Myles Turner. Toppin hasn't been great this season, but is worth looking at with the Pacers extremely shorthanded now. He's averaging 10.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists across 20 minutes per game and his playing time is only going to increase now.

Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson will move into the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. The Pacers will be without Myles Turner (ankle), so Jackson getting the starting nod shouldn't be surprising. He could see significant run with backup center James Wiseman (Achilles) out for the year, so the Pacers are limited in terms of big men. Obi Toppin should get some minutes at the center spot, but Jackson is the much better streaming option between the two. Fantasy managers should consider Jackson a possible streaming choice until Jackson returns.

Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson (groin) is available ahead of Friday's game against the New York Knicks. The big man is set to make his season debut after sitting out the season opener. Normally, Jackson's status isn't noteworthy, but he's now the primary backup center with James Wiseman (Achilles) done for the season. The assumption is that Jackson will absorb some of the playing time that Wiseman was going to get this season. Unfortunately, Jackson probably will still only see minutes in the teens, which makes him tough to trust while Myles Turner is healthy.

Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of the season opener against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday. The good news is that the Pacers are considering Jackson as day-to-day with this minor groin issue. Head coach Rick Carlisle doesn't believe this is something that is going to sideline Jackson for long. The absence of Jackson would probably mean James Wiseman serves as the primary backup center to Myles Turner. Wiseman is a former top draft pick, but hasn't lived up to the hype. He might see 15-20 minutes without Jackson, but he hasn't proven to be a trustworthy option throughout his career.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Isaiah Jackson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against Cleveland. He's gone from questionable to out due to a left hamstring strain. Jackson's absence means a heavy workload for Myles Turner and Jalen Smith against Cleveland's twin towers of Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley. It's a rough matchup for the duo, with the Cavaliers giving up the fifth-fewest points in the league to opposing centers.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Isaiah Jackson (concussion) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets. He's sat out two games while being in concussion protocol. However, it looks like Jackson could be cleared to return on Tuesday. The 22-year-old is a good per-minute performer, but he doesn't get a lot of playing time for the Pacers behind Myles Turner, and Pascal Siakam's addition to the frontcourt will further complicate Jackson's situation.

Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The big man exited early and landed in concussion protocol on Thursday. As a result, Jackson sat out on Friday and will miss Sunday's game as well. When healthy, Jackson is going to face an uphill battle for playing time. Pascal Siakam is going to start and play the bulk of the minutes, so Jackson will battle with Jalen Smith for minutes off the bench.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Isaiah Jackson (finger) remains on the injury report as questionable as the team gets ready for Monday's rematch versus Boston. Jackson has suffered a hairline fracture to his right fifth finger, but he's managed to play through the injury and logged nine minutes in Saturday's 118-101 loss to the Celtics. It appears likely that Jackson will also be available on Monday. The 21-year-old has bags of potential but is in a rough spot fantasy-wise in Indiana as long as Myles Turner and Jalen Smith stay healthy.

Indiana Pacers forward Isaiah Jackson played well during Monday's Summer League matchup against the Orlando Magic. Jackson recorded a double-double with 13 points and 11 rebounds in 26 minutes of action. The 21-year-old was able to carry some fantasy value last season due to his defensive ability. He averaged 1.2 blocks per game to go along with 7.2 points and 4.5 rebounds in 16.5 minutes per game. His fantasy potential is limited with Myles Turner still in Indiana. In fact, the Pacers signed Turner to a two-year extension, so that's not good news for Jackson. He'll likely only end up as a deep league option again due to lack of playing time.
