Limited to six minutes Monday
Head coach Rick Carlisle said after Monday's 135-119 loss to the Cavaliers that McConnell experienced some general soreness following last weekend's back-to-back set, Tony East of Forbes.com reports. He was limited to six minutes, finishing with four points (2-3 FG), one rebound, one assist and one steal.
Analyse
Although McConnell felt fine while going through pregame warmups, he wasn't feeling right when the game started, so Carlisle opted to hold him out. Carlisle maintained that McConnell wasn't dealing with a specific injury, so it sounds like he'll be fine for Wednesday's matchup with the Nuggets. Still, his status will be worth monitoring, and the Pacers are expected to provide an update by Tuesday night.

Scores team-high 16 points
McConnell recorded 16 points (8-17 FG, 0-4 3Pt), seven rebounds and six assists in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 97-95 loss to Toronto.
Analyse
McConnell continues to trend in the right direction, having now played at least 22 minutes in two straight games. In that span, he has averaged 16.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.5 steals. While this is likely his ceiling in terms of playing time, he has a knack for contributing across multiple categories, even in limited minutes, making him a worthwhile fantasy asset, even in standard formats.
