Bennedict Mathurin - Out again MondayMathurin (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Pistons.

ImpactMathurin will miss back-to-back games due to a right ankle sprain. It's unclear when he'll be able to suit up again, but his next chance to do so will arrive Thursday in Milwaukee. In his absence, Chris Duarte and Andrew Nembhard are candidates for increased roles.

Jaden Ivey - Remains outIvey (health and safety protocols) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Pacers.

ImpactIvey will miss a second straight game due to COVID-19 protocols. Monday's matchup is the first half of a back-to-back set, so it's possible the rookie guard remains sidelined Tuesday as well. Alec Burks (foot) is also out Monday, so R.J. Hampton, Rodney McGruder and Cory Joseph are all candidates for increased roles versus Indiana.

Bojan Bogdanovic - Still outBogdanovic (Achilles) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Pacers.

ImpactBogdanovic remains sidelined due to Achilles tendinitis. The Pistons are considering shutting him down for the remainder of the campaign, but until that happens, we'll continue to update his status game-by-game. The veteran forward's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday in Washington.

Alec Burks - Won't play MondayBurks (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Pacers.

ImpactBurks will miss a fourth straight game due to left foot soreness. His next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against the Wizards.

Buddy Hield - Questionable MondayHield (sore left toe) is questionable for Monday's game in Detroit.

ImpactHield has yet to miss a game this season and with the Pacers within shouting distance of the play-in tournament, there's some more incentive for Buddy to push through the pain. However, if he is forced to join Tyrese Haliburton (foot), T.J. McConnell (back) and Myles Turner (back) on the sidelines, that would open up a ton of opportunity for Chris Duarte.

Andrew Nembhard - Excels as main playmakerNembhard finished Saturday's 121-115 win over the Pistons with 19 points (6-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), eight assists and three rebounds across 33 minutes.

ImpactThough he struggled to find his shooting touch Saturday, Nembhard thrived as the Pacers' lead playmaker in the absences of Tyrese Haliburton (knee) and T.J. McConnell (back). The eight assists were Nembhard's most since Feb. 10, and he turned the ball over just twice despite taking on a 23.4 percent usage rate. With head coach Rick Carlisle already ruling out Haliburton and McConnell for Monday's rematch with Detroit, Nembhard should make for a strong streaming option for assists and to a lesser degree, steals, for at least one more game.
