Nembhard (neck) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason game against Atlanta, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nembhard was considered unlikely to play Monday, so his status isn't particularly surprising. However, coach Rick Carlisle said before Monday's matchup that he hopes Nembhard will be able to practice fully Tuesday and ramp up during Friday's preseason finale against the Cavaliers.
