Rotowire
Siakam is out for Tuesday's game against the Kings due to a right knee sprain.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Scores 22 points in loss
Rotowire
Siakam had 22 points (9-20 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-9 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Sunday's 131-111 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Siakam was one of the few bright spots for the Pacers in this 20-point loss, and the forward continues to carry the team offensively. This was his fifth consecutive outing with 20-plus points, a stretch in which he's averaging 27.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.4 steals per game. Siakam has been nursing a wrist injury, so he might be rested from time to time, but he's a strong fantasy asset to consider every time he's active.

Rotowire

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Team-high 26 points
Rotowire
Siakam ended with 26 points (10-20 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-9 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals over 29 minutes during Friday's 128-117 loss to the Lakers.
Since Feb. 10, Siakam has appeared in only four of Indiana's 10 games. However, the four-time All-Star has averaged 28.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.3 steals in 31.3 minutes during those appearances. As long as he's available, Siakam should be the go-to offensive option, but given the Pacers' current standing in the playoff picture, it's unclear how many games their star forward will suit up for down the stretch.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Probable to play Friday
Rotowire
Siakam (wrist) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Lakers.
Siakam missed three consecutive games due to a left wrist sprain before returning against the Clippers on Wednesday, when he finished with 29 points, five rebounds, one assist and one three-pointer over 30 minutes in a 130-107 loss. The probable tag suggests that the veteran forward will be available for Friday's contest, though his official status should be announced closer to tip-off.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Scores 29 in blowout loss
Rotowire
Siakam recorded 29 points (8-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 12-14 FT), five rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 130-107 loss to the Clippers.
The Pacers looked overmatched in yet another loss this season, but Siakam was strong offensively in his return from a three-game absence. Siakam has played just twice since the All-Star break and has scored at least 29 points both times. He's going to operate as the Pacers' go-to scoring weapon when healthy, but the lack of availability has been an issue of late. Siakam has missed five of the Pacers' seven games since the All-Star break.

Rotowire
Siakam (wrist) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Unlikely to play Thursday
Rotowire
Siakam (wrist) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Hornets.
It appears as though Siakam will miss a second consecutive game as he recovers from a left wrist sprain. The doubtful tag for the Pacers' last two games -- rather than being ruled out from the get-go -- means that the veteran forward can be considered day-to-day. Ben Sheppard figures to remain in the starting lineup for Thursday's contest if Siakam doesn't play.

Rotowire
Siakam (wrist) will not play Tuesday against the 76ers, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Unlikely to go Tuesday
Rotowire
Siakam is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the 76ers due to a left wrist sprain.
Siakam returned from a hamstring injury Sunday against Dallas and turned in a 30-point showing, but he evidently picked up a wrist injury at some point along the way. With Siakam unlikely to suit up, look for Micah Potter, who is probable due to a left ankle sprain, to see an uptick in minutes, along with Kobe Brown.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Game-high 30 points in return
Rotowire
Siakam (hamstring) recorded 30 points (12-19 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds and three assists in 29 minutes during Sunday's 134-130 loss to the Mavericks.
The All-Star forward made his first appearance of the second half of the season, putting up at least 30 points for the 11th time in 2025-26. With a lost season for the Pacers slowly beginning to wind down, it's possible Siakam's availability will remain sporadic throughout the course of the stretch run. That said, he's locked in as Indiana's top scoring option, with Siakam averaging 24.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 2.1 three-pointers in 33.2 minutes per contest his last 11 games.

Pacers' Pascal Siakam: Will play Sunday
Rotowire
Siakam (hamstring) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Siakam is averaging 23.7 points, 6.7 reboudns, 3.9 assists, 1.8 triples and 1.1 steals per game this season, so make sure you've got him active.
