Micah Potter Fantasy Stats

Portland Trail Blazers forward/center Micah Potter (illness) is available for Wednesday's season opener against the Phoenix Suns. He missed the preseason finale while sick. The 28-year-old sits behind Donovan Clingan, Robert Williams III, and Yang Hansen on the center depth chart, so minutes will be hard to find. Potter's best path is his shooting. He hit 42.3 percent of his 3.6 three-point attempts per game with Indiana last season, averaging 9.7 points and 5.0 rebounds in 19.3 minutes. He saw only 10.8 minutes per game this preseason, so fantasy managers can leave him on waivers until injuries thin out Portland's frontcourt.

The Portland Trail Blazers have claimed forward/center Micah Potter off waivers from the Indiana Pacers on Friday. The Pacers recently cut Potter to make room for the newly signed Larry Nance Jr. on the roster. Potter has moved around in the league since joining the Detroit Pistons in 2021. He averaged 9.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.5 assists across 19.3 minutes per game in 47 contests with the Pacers this past season. He figures to mix in somewhere on the bench in Portland, but is unlikely to see consistent enough playing time to warrant adding in fantasy basketball.

Indiana Pacers center Micah Potter will be waived to complete the team's signing of Larry Nance Jr., according to Alex Golden of Setting The Pace. Potter's $2.8 million contract was non-guaranteed, and the move creates a small cap savings for Indiana after adding Nance on a veteran-minimum deal. The 28-year-old had a useful run last season, averaging 9.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.5 assists across 47 games while shooting 42.3 percent from three-point range. Potter's stretch-big skill set could draw interest elsewhere, but he falls off the fantasy radar until he lands another NBA role.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (wrist) will not play Tuesday against Philadelphia, while forward/center Micah Potter (ankle) is available and expected to see a larger role. Siakam recently returned from a hamstring issue but aggravated his wrist after a collision on Sunday, forcing him back to the sideline. Potter has averaged 12.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 1.8 triples over his last five games in 26.2 minutes, making him a viable streamer. Kobe Brown added 15 points and seven rebounds in 19 minutes last game and profiles as a deeper-league option.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Micah Potter (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup, and he'll be a key player to watch for DFS contests and streaming options in a great matchup against the Wizards. He had 19 points and 12 rebounds in 27 minutes in his last game before the All-Star break against the Nets and could play a huge role on Thursday since Pascal Siakam (personal) is away from the team, and Ivica Zubac (ankle) also remains out. If Potter is unable to play through the injury, Jay Huff and Jarace Walker would have even more work to do in the frontcourt in this smash spot against Washington.

Indiana Pacers forward Jarace Walker (illness) and forward/center Micah Potter (ankle) will be active against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. Both players were listed as questionable on the initial injury report. Indiana will wrap up a back-to-back on Wednesday and won't have any of its big guns in the lineup, giving players like Walker and Potter an excellent opportunity to have larger roles. Potter looks set to make a second consecutive start, while Walker may join him in the first unit. Overall, the Pacers will have only nine players available for this game.

Indiana Pacers forward/center Micah Potter (hip) will play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday. The Pacers have updated his status from questionable to available. Potter has been playing through a hip issue lately and may ultimately take some time off on Wednesday when Indiana plays the second game of a back-to-back against Brooklyn. In Tuesday's contest, Potter may see some extra minutes on the floor due to Jarace Walker's (illness) absence. Last time out against Toronto, Potter was just short of a double-double, notching eight points and eight rebounds in 26 minutes.

Indiana Pacers center Micah Potter (hip) is ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Potter will miss the second game of the back-to-back set due to a left hip contusion. His next chance to play will be on Friday against the Milwaukee Bucks. This season, Potter is averaging 6.7 points, 1.4 assists, and 3.8 rebounds in 17.2 minutes per game. There isn't a ton of playing time to go around, considering he was only averaging minutes in the teens. The assumption is that Jay Huff and Jarace Walker will see more action and have slightly increased fantasy value.

The San Antonio Spurs have signed forward/center Micah Potter to an Exhibit 10 contract. He will get a chance to impress during training camp after parting ways with the Utah Jazz. Potter spent three seasons in Salt Lake City on a two-way contract. 2024-25 was his most successful campaign, as Potter occasionally filled in as a starter and averaged 4.3 points with 4.3 rebounds in 18.6 minutes. Potter, who began his pro career in 2021-22 with the Detroit Pistons, turned 27 in April and clearly doesn't have many opportunities left to stick in the NBA.

Utah Jazz forward/center Micah Potter (illness) has been ruled out on Friday for the matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans. John Collins (hip), Lauri Markkanen (back), and Walker Kessler (rest) are all sidelined as well, so they'll roll with an extremely thin frontcourt. Kyle Filipowski could move into the starting center role while Brice Sensabaugh is also a good streaming option. The former registered eight points, two rebounds, and two assists while the latter had 19 points, four rebounds, and four assists in their last game.
