Thompson tallied 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and three steals across 27 minutes in Wednesday's 115-110 win over the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

A two-way player, Thompson joined the banged-up Pacers for the second half of their back-to-back set and made an impact. The 26-year-old guard recorded a career-high 15 points and was one of six Indiana players to score in double figures. He also set a new career high in steals, grabbing multiple swipes for the third time this season. While Thompson shouldn't be expected to enter the rotation on a regular basis, he may continue to play a role for the parent club whenever it sits key contributors.

Thompson (two-way) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

A two-way player, Thompson hasn't seen action for the Pacers or their G League affiliate, the Noblesville Boom, since last Wednesday while he's been managing a thumb issue, but the injury doesn't look like it will prevent him from playing against Brooklyn. With eight other players listed out with injuries and with Micah Potter (ankle) and Jarace Walker (illness) considered questionable, Thompson appears likely to be included in the rotation Wednesday.

Thompson racked up two points (1-1 FG) and one assist over four minutes during Monday's 126-119 loss to Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson barely touched the floor Monday, continuing the recent decline in playing time. It would appear as though Indiana will have very little to play for later in the season, other than lottery balls. Head coach Rick Carlisle has already shown his hand when it comes to experimenting with different lineups, something that could very well continue for the remainder of the season. Thompson can be dropped in most formats, although managers will want to monitor the situation in case things change at some point.

EDGE Analysis

Thompson moved into the starting lineup for the first time in his young career, logging at least 28 minutes for the second straight game. Although his numbers don't jump off the page, he certainly had an impact when it mattered most, securing a number of key offensive rebounds down the stretch. At this stage, there is no reason to prioritize him outside of deeper formats. However, he is worth monitoring everywhere, just in case his hustle translates into viable fantasy production.
