Aaron Nesmith (quad) expected to play Tuesday for Pacers
Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (left quad bruise) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks, per head coach Rick Carlisle.
What It Means:
Nesmith is listed as questionable, but he participated in the morning shootaround and remains on track to suit up. He played 28 minutes on Sunday in his second game back from a four-game absence due to an ankle injury. Bennedict Mathurin (foot) and Ben Sheppard (illness) are also expected to play.
numberFire's models project Nesmith for 28.0 minutes and 23.3 FanDuel points on Tuesday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Pacers' implied total (121.0) is second-best out of 16 teams on the Main slate, while the game total (246.5) is the highest on the board.
