Brad Rowland: Pacers injury report for tonight against the Hawks is extremely busy. OUT - Tyrese Haliburton, Pascal Siakam, Ivica Zubac, Aaron Nesmith, Andrew Nembhard, TJ McConnell, Furphy, Sheppard QUESTIONABLE - Obi Toppin DOUBTFUL - Larry Nance Jr.

Ira Winderman: Simone Fontecchio (illness) is the lone player on the Heat injury report for Friday night vs. visiting Pacers. For Indiana, out are: Tyrese Haliburton, T.J. McConnell, Ivica Zubac, Ben Sheppard, Jonny Furphy, with Andrew Nembhard and Aaron Nesmith listed as probable.

Flagg took a hard hit from Aaron Nesmith in the final minute of the first half while driving toward the basket for a breakaway dunk. The Mavericks star fell hard to the floor in visible pain, clutching his left shoulder. The incident sparked a scuffle between the Mavericks and Pacers, resulting in a flagrant foul and a technical foul being assessed to Nesmith. Naji Marshall was also called for a technical foul.

Most of the Pacers' core is the same -- Haliburton, Siakam, Nembhard and Aaron Nesmith -- but Ivica Zubac was brought in to replace the departed Myles Turner in a trade deadline deal that ended up costing Indiana the No. 5 pick in the draft. Team sources say the Pacers are confident that the deal will help reopen their championship window. They also acknowledge Zubac, who plays closer to the basket, will provide different strengths than Turner, a center who stretches the floor from 3-point range. "We have a great coach who figures things out," Buchanan told ESPN. "That's a strength of his. If things aren't going well, and we aren't playing well -- or [Zubac's] not fitting well, he adapts."

Dustin Dopirak: Pascal Siakam ruled out for Sunday’s game against Cleveland. Left ankle sprain the listed reason. Aaron Nesmith, Andrew Nembhard, TJ McConnell also out. Ben Sheppard and Jarace Walker questionable

Dustin Dopirak: Carlisle says Pascal Siakam, Andrew Nembhard and T.J. McConnell will be available. Says Aaron Nesmith has been dealing with the cervical strain for the last two games and woke up this morning and it was clear he wasn't in a good spot with it.

Scott Agness: Aaron Nesmith now downgraded to doubtful today -- cervical strain. He's coming off a 26-point performance Friday v Clippers.

Scott Agness: Kawhi Leonard delivers the game-winning bucket for the Clippers with 1sec on the clock — a dribble pull-up over two defenders. He scored 11 of his 28pts in the 4Q, primarily off isolations. Aaron Nesmith scored 26, Obi Toppin added 20/8, and Andrew Nembhard added 13/10a. Next: Sun. v MIA
