  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Passive performance in loss

    Nesmith registered seven points (3-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 115-92 loss to the Bucks in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

    Nesmith salvaged a rough shooting night with modest across-the-board production. Despite playing a significant role, he has been unable to rediscover his form from earlier in the season. While the loss was far from ideal, the Pacers will now head home for Game 6 and attempt to wrap up the series again.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Pops for 15 points in loss

    Nesmith accumulated 15 points (5-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and six rebounds over 33 minutes during Friday's 129-120 loss to the Cavaliers.

    Nesmith was one of eight Pacers players to score double-digits, although it wasn't enough to get the victory. While it has been an encouraging season for Nesmith, this does feel like a best-case scenario in terms of opportunity. Looking beyond this season, it's hard to see him being a must-roster player outside of deeper leagues.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Available to face Chicago

    Nesmith (knee) is available to face the Bulls on Wednesday.

    Nesmith is back from a one-game absence due to a right knee bruise, and barring any setbacks, he should start and handle his regular workload. Nesmith is averaging 10.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game across 12 starts this month.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Unavailable Monday

    Nesmith (knee) is out Monday against the Clippers.

    Nesmith will be sidelined due to a right knee bruise in what will mark his first absence since Feb. 28. Doug McDermott and Andrew Nembhard are the top candidates to absorb Nesmith's minutes load.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Iffy for Monday

    Nesmith is questionable for Monday's game against the Clippers due to a right knee bruise.

    Nesmith posted 13 points, four assists, three rebounds and two steals in 27 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Lakers, but he may miss the second half of Indiana's back-to-back set. If Nemsith is downgraded to out, Doug McDermott, Obi Toppin and Ben Sheppard are candidates for increased roles.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Drops 13 points in loss

    Nesmith finished Sunday's 150-145 loss to the Lakers with 13 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two blocks across 27 minutes.

    Nesmith's production has been all over the place lately. Through 12 March appearances, the sharpshooter is averaging 10.9 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.8 three-pointers while hitting 40.8 percent from the field and 38.9 percent from beyond the arc.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Stuffs stat sheet in win Saturday

    Nesmith accumulated 16 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 26 minutes during Saturday's 121-100 victory over the Nets.

    Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner didn't have their best performances Saturday. However, Nesmith stepped up and delivered a strong outing on both ends of the court, registering at least two tallies in each of the five major categories. Nesmith has scored in double digits in four straight appearances and has averaged 10.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 blocks per game since the beginning of March.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Effective with 15 points

    Nesmith ended Sunday's 111-97 victory over the Magic with 16 points (4-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 37 minutes.

    Although Bennedict Mathurin's (shoulder) season-ending injury doesn't change the names in the first unit, Nesmith saw a noticeable boost in minutes due to his backup's absence, a trend that should continue in the short term. The eventual return of Doug McDermott (calf) could provide Nesmith some relief.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Has shot blocked late vs. T-Wolves

    Nesmith racked up eight points (2-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 30 minutes during Thursday's 113-111 loss to Minnesota.

    Nesmith had a chance to send the game to overtime, but his layup was blocked in spectacular fashion by Anthony Edwards. Nesmith has struggled with his shot as of late and has gone 4-for-20 from the field over his last three games. He has failed to reach double-digit scoring in each of his last five games, which is a far cry from his production in February when he averaged 13.8 points per game on 50.6 percent shooting, including 39.5 percent from three.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Lean run continues Tuesday

    Nesmith had six points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound and two assists across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 137-120 victory over the Mavericks.

    Nesmith managed just six points in the win, continuing his poor production of late. Since returning from an ankle injury, he has scored a total of 19 points across three games. Not only has his scoring been underwhelming, but his defensive numbers have been even worse, tallying one steal and zero blocks in that time. While he should be better than this moving forward, his upside is not that high, meaning managers could move on if the situation warrants immediate production.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Will play Tuesday

    Nesmith (quadriceps) will be available for Tuesday's game against Dallas.

    The Pacers will be getting their primary floor spacer back in the lineup after he missed the past four games. In Nesmith's last 10 games, he averaged 11.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.7 three-pointers.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Participates in shootaround

    Nesmith (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, but he participated in the Pacers' morning shootaround, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Nesmith missed four straight games due to a right ankle sprain before returning to action Friday. He appeared in back-to-back games (both starts) and played 21 and 28 minutes, respectively, in those contests, but he was back on the injury report Monday with a left quad bruise. Nesmith is trending in the right direction, but his official availability will likely be a game-time decision.

  • Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Returns to injury report

    Nesmith is questionable for Tuesday's game against Dallas due to a left quad bruise.

    Nesmith has compiled 13 points, four rebounds and five assists across 49 minutes in two contests since returning from an ankle sprain. Another absence for Nesmith would come at an inopportune time for a Pacers team that has loss three of the last four games.
