Andrew Nembhard Injury: Not playing Saturday

Updated on January 17, 2026 at 2:49pm

Nembhard (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

Nembhard will be sidelined for Saturday's road tilt while managing a lower-back injury, and his next chance to play is Monday against the 76ers. The Pacers will also be without T.J. McConnell (elbow), so Kam Jones and Ben Sheppard figure to be the top candidates to enter Indiana's starting lineup.
