Nesmith registered seven points (3-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 115-92 loss to the Bucks in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
EDGE Analysis
Nesmith salvaged a rough shooting night with modest across-the-board production. Despite playing a significant role, he has been unable to rediscover his form from earlier in the season. While the loss was far from ideal, the Pacers will now head home for Game 6, where they will attempt to wrap up the series.

Nesmith accumulated 15 points (5-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and six rebounds over 33 minutes during Friday's 129-120 loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Nesmith was one of eight Pacers players to score double-digits, although it wasn't enough to get the victory. While it has been an encouraging season for Nesmith, this does feel like a best-case scenario in terms of opportunity. Looking beyond this season, it's hard to see him being a must-roster player outside of deeper leagues.

Nesmith (knee) is available to face the Bulls on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Nesmith is back from a one-game absence due to a right knee bruise, and barring any setbacks, he should start and handle his regular workload. Nesmith is averaging 10.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game across 12 starts this month.

EDGE Analysis
Nesmith is in danger of missing his second straight contest Wednesday due to a right knee bruise. If Nesmith is ruled out, Ben Sheppard will likely continue to start.

Nesmith (knee) is out Monday against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Nesmith will be sidelined due to a right knee bruise -- marking his first absence since Feb. 28. Doug McDermott logged 22 minutes in Sunday's loss to the Lakers, so his usage is on the rise, while Andrew Nembhard is likely also due for an above-average workload Monday.

Nesmith is questionable for Monday's game against the Clippers due to a right knee bruise.
EDGE Analysis
Nesmith posted 13 points, four assists, three rebounds and two steals in 27 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Lakers, but he may miss the second half of Indiana's back-to-back set. If Nemsith is downgraded to out, Doug McDermott, Obi Toppin and Ben Sheppard are candidates for increased roles.

Nesmith finished Sunday's 150-145 loss to the Lakers with 13 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two blocks across 27 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Nesmith's production has been all over the place lately. Through 12 March appearances, the sharpshooter is averaging 10.9 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.8 three-pointers while hitting 40.8 percent from the field and 38.9 percent from beyond the arc.

Nesmith accumulated 16 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals in 26 minutes during Saturday's 121-100 victory over the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner didn't have their best performances Saturday. However, Nesmith stepped up and delivered a strong outing on both ends of the court, registering at least two tallies in each of the five major categories. Nesmith has scored in double digits in four straight appearances and has averaged 10.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 blocks per game since the beginning of March.

Nesmith ended Sunday's 111-97 victory over the Magic with 16 points (4-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 37 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Although Bennedict Mathurin's (shoulder) season-ending injury doesn't change the names in the first unit, Nesmith saw a noticeable boost in minutes due to his backup's absence, a trend that should continue in the short term. The eventual return of Doug McDermott (calf) could provide Nesmith some relief.

Nesmith racked up eight points (2-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 30 minutes during Thursday's 113-111 loss to Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Nesmith had a chance to send the game to overtime, but his layup was blocked in spectacular fashion by Anthony Edwards. Nesmith has struggled with his shot as of late and has gone 4-for-20 from the field over his last three games. He has failed to reach double-digit scoring in each of his last five games, which is a far cry from his production in February when he averaged 13.8 points per game on 50.6 percent shooting, including 39.5 percent from three.
