Over the past four matchups, Grant has averaged 28.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.3 blocks in 36.3 minutes per game.

Isaiah Jackson - Limited in loss MondayJackson closed with two points (1-2 FG), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 10 minutes during Monday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.
ImpactJackson remained in the rotation Monday, although only played 11 minutes in the loss. To this point, he has been used sparingly by the Pacers, playing in just nine of their 16 games. He can be an elite source of blocks if you manage to stream him in at the right time. However, knowing when he is going to get playing time is anyone's guess.

Aaron Nesmith - Logs 25 minutes in returnNesmith amassed seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and three steals in 25 minutes during Monday's 114-110 loss to Portland.
ImpactNesmith returned from a two-game absence due to a wrist injury, logging 25 minutes off the bench. While he did manage to rack up three steals, it was far from a stellar performance. He has had his moments this season but on the whole, he should be viewed as nothing more than a schedule-based streamer.

Bennedict Mathurin - Unproductive again MondayMathurin notched 11 points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT) and four rebounds over 22 minutes during Monday's 114-110 loss to the Trail Blazers.
ImpactMathurin offered very little again Monday, continuing his poor run of late. Since moving to the bench, it's been a whole lot of nothing for the sophomore. Although he has scored double-digits in four of the past five games, he has shot over 50 percent only once, adding basically nothing in terms of peripheral production. Despite the upside, Mathurin can be dropped in all standard formats.

Shaedon Sharpe - Season-high three stealsSharpe produced 11 points (4-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and three steals across 35 minutes during Monday's 114-110 victory over the Pacers.
ImpactSharpe produced a season-high three steals in the win, while also scoring double-digits for the fourth straight game. Despite continuing to be a somewhat reliable source of points, Sharpe's efficiency from the field remains an issue. He is shooting 39.1 percent for the season but over the past two weeks, that is down to 32.4 percent. He remains a viable standard league asset as long as his poor shooting can be swallowed.
