Another absence coming
Nesmith (neck) is out for Friday's game against the 76ers.
Analyse
Nesmith will miss his seventh straight game and remains without a timetable to return. He should be considered doubtful for the season finale Sunday.

Won't face Brooklyn
Nesmith (neck) is out for Thursday's game against the Nets.
Analyse
Nesmith is one of several regulars who won't be playing Thursday, and the Pacers aren't expected to risk him with three games left in the regular season. With Nesmith out, look for Ethan Thompson, who's on a two-way contract, should have a bigger role in the Pacers' backcourt.
6. April 2026
Not yet ready to return
Nesmith (neck) is out for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analyse
Nesmith will mis his fifth straight game while battling a neck injury. He's once again been downgraded to out a full day ahead of Indiana's upcoming matchup, so he doesn't appear close to a return. Nesmith can be considered doubtful for Thursday's tilt in Brooklyn until further notice.
