Jefferson saw only 11 minutes in Friday's 103-94 loss to the Nets, producing two points (1-5 FG), two rebounds, two assists and one block across 12 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Additionally, Jefferson played just 12 minutes in Wednesday's season-opening win over the Mavericks, with starting center Myles Turner's dominant play in the Pacers' first two contests making it difficult for coach Nate McMillan to take him off the court. There's a decent chance Jefferson will see more opportunities Saturday against the Bulls with McMillan perhaps looking to limit some of his high-minute regulars in the second half of a back-to-back set, but so long as Turner continues to thrive, Jefferson will generally have to settle for scant playing time most nights.
