EDGE Analysis

With Pascal Siakam (wrist) unavailable, Sheppard will rejoin the starting five. As a starter this season (16 games), the 24-year-old guard has averaged 8.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 25.0 minutes per contest.

EDGE Analysis

Sheppard has started in each of the Pacers' last three games and averaged 10.7 points, 3.0 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 2.0 threes and 1.3 steals over 22.0 minutes per game over that span. He will revert to a bench role for Sunday's contest due to the returns of Andrew Nembhard and Pascal Siakam.

In 13 games over the past month, he has averaged 7.5 points and .5 three-pointers in 18.0 minutes per contest. Although there is a chance he suits up on most nights moving forward, his overall ceiling is too low to warrant significant fantasy attention.

During that span, he has averaged just 5.5 points and 1.3 three-pointers in 17.1 minutes per game.
