Game-high 26 points not enough Brogdon ended Friday's 111-106 loss to the Pistons with 26 points (9-23 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 36 minutes.
Impact After missing 27 of 30 contests due to an Achilles injury, Brogdon appears to have finally found his rhythm again. The sixth-year guard has appeared in four of Indiana's last five games -- missing the second half of a back-to-back for injury management -- and has averaged 23.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.3 steals in 34.3 minutes during that stretch. After the trade of Domantas Sabonis, the new-look Pacers continue to try to find their identity, but as long as he's healthy, Brogdon figures to be the man leading the charge.

Approaches triple-double in win Brogdon contributed 31 points (8-18 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 12-15 FT), 11 rebounds, eight assists, two steals and one block across 41 minutes during Wednesday's 122-114 overtime victory over...
Impact Brogdon returned to action after sitting out the second half of a back-to-back set Monday to manage his Achilles injury. He established a new season high in scoring Wednesday thanks to 15 trips to the free-throw line and grabbed double-digit rebounds for just the third time all season en route to his first double-double since Nov. 13. Perhaps more than the production itself, Brogdon's huge minutes load could hint that the Pacers are comfortable with his health, after the 29-year-old had previously looked like a potential shutdown candidate heading into the All-Star break.

Off injury report for Wednesday Brogdon (Achilles) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Magic.
Impact Brogdon will be back in action after sitting out the second half of a back-to-back set Monday. He's looked good in his first two games back, averaging 17.5 points on 13.5 shots, 5.0 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals with just 1.0 turnovers.

Won't play Monday Brogdon (Achilles) has been ruled out for Monday's contest against the Magic.
Impact Brogdon was sharp during Sunday's win over the Celtics, which was his just second game back from a lengthy absence due to an Achilles injury, but he'll be sidelined for the second half of the Pacers' back-to-back Monday to manage the issue. The sixth-year guard has appeared in just five contests since Dec. 15, so Indiana will likely be cautious with him moving forward. In his absence, Chris Duarte (toe) is expected to join the starting lineup, but Duane Washington and Keifer Sykes are also candidates for increased roles off the bench.

Sharp in win Brogdon totaled 20 points (7-13 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals over 29 minutes during Sunday's 128-107 victory over Boston.
Impact Brogdon is operating with a typical workload and delivering strong, efficient production. He's transitioned well into the new-look Pacers. His injury risk/shutdown potential is a real wild card in evaluating his rest-of-season outlook, but the 29-year-old is a legitimate fantasy asset.

Gets solid minutes in return Brogdon (Achilles) posted 15 points (6-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt), four assists, four rebounds and one steal across 31 minutes Friday in the Pacers' 129-125 overtime loss to the Thunder.
Impact Playing for the first time since Jan. 19 and for only the third time in the Pacers' last 29 games, Brogdon stepped back into a starting role and saw more playing time than expected. While the production wasn't outstanding, Brogdon's ability to merely play as Indiana opened its second-half schedule was a welcome sight for fantasy managers who had stashed him throughout his prolonged absence. While Brogdon's recurring Achilles soreness is a threat to get him shut down for the season if he incurs another setback, he looks like he could handle a steady 30-plus-minute role now that he's healthy again.

Available Friday Brogdon (Achilles) is available for Friday's game against Oklahoma City.
Impact Brogdon was considered probable ahead of Friday's matchup, so his status doesn't come as a significant surprise. He missed 15 games ahead of the All-Star break, so it's possible that he'll have his playing time monitored as he returns to game action.

Officially probable Friday Brogdon (Achilles) is probable for Friday's game against the Thunder, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Impact Brogdon said Wednesday he expected to take the court for Friday's contest, and he's officially labeled probable on Indiana's injury report. The 29-year-old missed 15 straight games heading into the All-Star break and has appeared in only three games since mid-December, but it appears the midseason pause provided enough rest for him to retake the court. Given the significant layoff, Brogdon could face some workload restrictions for the near future.

Expects to play Friday Brogdon (Achilles) said Wednesday that he expects to play in Friday's matchup against Oklahoma City, James Boyd of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Impact Brogdon missed significant time prior to the All-Star break and has appeared in just three games since Dec. 15. However, he participated in practice Wednesday and said afterward that he'd be able to suit up if the team's matchup against the Thunder was held Wednesday. While the Pacers will presumably see how Brogdon fares in the coming days before officially determining his status for Friday's game, he's trending in the right direction ahead of the second half of the season.

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.
