Carlisle added that Nesmith is doing some live work on the court, but the coach's unwillingness to commit to a timeline suggests that the 25-year-old will most likely be sidelined for the entirety of the Pacers' upcoming three-game week. Nesmith hasn't played since Nov. 1 due to a left ankle sprain.
