GAME LOG

Terry Taylor - Makes most of starting chance Taylor compiled 18 points (9-11 FG, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds and one block across 36 minutes Wednesday in the Pacers' 113-108 win over the Wizards.
Impact The undrafted rookie out of Austin Peay continues to post eye-popping numbers when given extended playing time, as he now has five games with double-digit points and at least nine rebounds in the past three weeks. Though he's now earned 30-plus minutes in two straight contests, Taylor's playing time looks destined to take a hit coming out of the All-Star break. While Indiana cleared up some of the crowding in the frontcourt by waiving Tristan Thompson after the contest, the Pacers could conceivably have all of Myles Turner (foot), Goga Bitadze (foot), Chris Duarte (toe), Isaiah Jackson (ankle) and Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) back for its first game of the second half Feb. 25 versus the Thunder.

Lance Stephenson - Stuffs stat sheet Stephenson ended Wednesday's 113-108 win over Washington with 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 34 minutes.
Impact The Pacers' operated an eight-man rotation on Wednesday, yielding plenty of usage for Stephenson. Stephenson's playing time has fluctuated rapidly of late, which makes him tough to trust on a weekly basis, but he's a versatile contributor and can be a solid nightly option in softer matchups.
FEBRUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Tyrese Haliburton - Continues to shine for new team Haliburton registered 21 points (6-17 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 14 assists, five rebounds and one steal across 39 minutes during Wednesday's 113-108 win over the Wizards.
Impact Haliburton wasn't overly efficient, but he was a maestro running the offense and was aggressive in getting to the free-throw line. Wednesday marked another monster double-double for the burgeoning young point guard in the league. Haliburton currently ranks sixth in the NBA this season total assists, trailingRussell Westbrook and above the likes of Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic, LaMelo Ball and Darius Garland. It's safe to say Haliburton is keeping good company heading into the All-Star break.
FEBRUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Oshae Brissett - Bounces back in win Brissett accumulated 17 points (6-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-8 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 113-108 win over the Wizards.
Impact Despite shooting just 33.3 percent from deep, Brissett is emerging in Torrey Craig's vacated 3-and-D role. Even factoring in a six-point dud from Wednesday, Brissett has scored at least 15 points in four of his past five games -- easily his most productive scoring stretch of the season. The 23-year-old is a strong rebounder and solid defensive presence, and he's boosted his three-point shooting to 35.7 percent on 4.0 attempts per game across seven contests this month.

Terry Taylor - Joins starting five Wednesday Taylor will start Wednesday's game against the Wizards.
Impact Goga Bitadze was a late scratch due to a foot injury, so Taylor will end up making his second career start. The 22-year-old has averaged 10.6 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 20.6 minutes across 10 games since being called up from the G League in late January.
FEBRUARY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Goga Bitadze - Late scratch before break Bitadze is a late scratch for Wednesday's game against the Wizards due to a sore right foot, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Impact Bitadze wasn't previously on the injury report, so it's surprising to see him shelved. In his absence, the Pacers' depleted frontcourt becomes even thinner. That could lead to extra minutes for Jalen Smith and Tristan Thompson.

Lakers Listed As a Potential Destination For Tristan Thompson If the Indiana Pacers do buy out Tristan Thompson, there is a very good chance that he ends up with the Lakers.
FEBRUARY 16, 2022 • SI.COM
Malcolm Brogdon - Out again Wednesday Brogdon (Achilles) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against the Wizards.
Impact Brogdon will remain sidelined for the Pacers' final contests before the All-Star break. The point guard has only made three appearances since Dec. 15, so it's not surprising to see him held out once again. Brogdon's next chance to return to game action will be Feb. 25 against the Thunder.
FEBRUARY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Isaiah Jackson - Remains out Wednesday Jackson (ankle) is out Wednesday against the Wizards.
Impact Jackson will be unavailable for a third consecutive game heading into the All-Star break. Tristan Thompson and Terry Taylor will presumably see increased run once again Wednesday.
FEBRUARY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Smith - Minutes drop in starting role Smith played 17 minutes and finished with 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt), seven rebounds and three assists in Tuesday's 128-119 loss to the Bucks.
Impact Though Smith was elevated to the starting five after two straight quality games in a row off the Indiana bench, he actually saw fewer minutes Tuesday than he had in either of the previous two contests. The downturn in playing time was mostly a byproduct of Smith fouling out of the game, which allowed Terry Taylor (32 minutes) to see more extensive run off the bench. With all of Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles), Chris Duarte (toe) and Isaiah Jackson (ankle) likely to be sidelined Wednesday against the Wizards, Smith could pick up another start, but the 21-year-old could shift back to the bench following the All-Star break.
