Fresh off a season-best 19-point outing Saturday against the Magic, Nesmith will slide into Indiana's starting lineup in place of Andrew Nembhard on Monday. Nesmith has averaged 10.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 blocks across 22.0 minutes throughout his first four starts of the year.

EDGE Analysis

Nesmith did nearly all of his damage in the second half with 13 points on 3-of-8 shooting from the field while also hitting all four of his free-throw attempts. The forward played a huge role off the bench with a season-high 19 points as Indiana barely managed to squeak by Orlando with a 114-113 victory. He played 25 minutes in the contest, his second-highest minutes total of the season and also knocked down a season-high five three-pointers.

EDGE Analysis

Nesmith could return Wednesday after missing the previous four games due to right foot soreness.

Nesmith (foot) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Earlier Sunday, Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle told Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis that Nesmith is unlikely to play Monday, so the third-year wing is presumably on the "doubtful" side of the questionable tag. Assuming Nesmith joins Chris Duarte (ankle) on the sideline Monday, rookie Bennedict Mathurin could be in store for his first career NBA start.

Nesmith (foot) isn't expected to play Monday against the Pelicans, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nesmith looks bound to miss his fourth consecutive game while he manages a right foot injury. With Chris Duarte (ankle) also in line to miss 4-to-6 weeks, the Pacers are likely to continue to give rookie Andrew Nembhard extensive playing time; Nembhard logged 28 minutes in a two-point win over Miami on Friday.

Nesmith (foot) will not take the floor Friday against the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Nesmith has been in and out of the starting lineup so far this season while dealing with right foot soreness. He'll be sidelined again Friday due to the issue, and in his absence, Chris Duarte and Bennedict Mathurin could be in line for more minutes.
