Potter ended Monday's 128-126 win over the Magic with six points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 20 minutes.
Potter scored in single digits for the fifth straight game, during which time he has failed to play more than 20 minutes in any one contest. He remains a name to watch should Indiana opt to shut anyone starters down for the season. However, as of right now, Potter holds very little value, outside of deeper formats.

Potter (triceps) registered nine points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3PT, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block over 20 minutes during the Pacers' 134-119 loss to the Spurs on Saturday.
Potter was given the green light to return from a two-game absence due to a triceps injury. He saw 20 minutes of playing time for the first time since March 4, and he should operate in an expanded role off the bench for the rest of the season in the absence of Ivica Zubac (rib).

Pacers' Micah Potter: Injures elbow late Sunday
Rotowire
Potter sustained a right elbow injury during the Pacers' 134-123 loss to the Bucks on Sunday. He finished with three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal over five minutes.
It's unclear when Potter sustained the injury, but the Pacers should provide an update on the severity of his injury once he undergoes additional tests. The elbow injury puts Potter in jeopardy of missing Tuesday's game against the Knicks, though he's now played five minutes or less in back-to-back games, so his absence wouldn't impact the Pacers' rotation all that much.

Pacers' Micah Potter: Efficient 18 points off bench
Rotowire
Potter recorded 18 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds and one block in 25 minutes during Sunday's 125-106 loss to the Grizzlies.
The last-place Pacers are essentially missing their entire starting five, which bodes well for Potter's chances of holding onto a significant role in the frontcourt. The 27-year-old is drawing some attention as a streaming option in most fantasy settings, averaging 15.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 0.9 steals and 2.4 three-pointers in 25.6 minutes per game over his last eight contests.

Pacers' Micah Potter: Adds 19 points off bench
Rotowire
Potter had 19 points (6-11 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals over 26 minutes during Thursday's 133-109 loss to Charlotte.
Potter picked up right where he left off after dropping a career-best 23 points Tuesday against Philly. He caught fire from downtown, where he tacked on 15 of his 19 points on the night. Potter also led Indiana with a pair of swipes. The Wisconsin product has logged 20-plus minutes in eight straight games and has a chance to remain relevant in the rotation even after Pascal Siakam (wrist) is cleared to return.

Pacers' Micah Potter: Drops career-high 23 points
Rotowire
Potter closed with 23 points (9-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 23 minutes during Tuesday's 135-114 loss to the 76ers.
Potter was red-hot to start the game, ending with a career-high 23 points. He also chipped in across all major categories, making this his best overall performance of the season. Despite continuing to come off the bench behind Jay Huff, Potter has been relatively productive in recent times. In five games over the past two weeks, he has averaged 15.2 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.8 combined steals-plus-blocks, which is good enough for top-70 value in nine-category leagues.

Pacers' Micah Potter: Good to go Friday
Rotowire
Potter (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Wizards, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Potter will shed his questionable tag due to an ankle sprain and suit up in the second leg of this back-to-back set. The 27-year-old has averaged 11.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game over his last five appearances (one start). With Pascal Siakam (personal), Aaron Nesmith (ankle), Ivica Zubac (ankle) and Obi Toppin (foot) all sidelined, Potter may see a bump in minutes.

Pacers' Micah Potter: Career-high 19 points in win
Rotowire
Potter posted 19 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 12 rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal across 27 minutes in Wednesday's 115-110 win over the Nets.
Potter shifted to a bench role after starting Tuesday's overtime win over New York, though he still saw significant playing time. The big man turned in an extremely efficient performance and finished as Indiana's second-leading scorer while setting a new career-high mark in points. He also grabbed a team- and season-high 12 boards, securing his third double-double on the campaign. Although the Wisconsin product has seen meaningful playing time of late, Ivica Zubac's (ankle) eventual return to action will likely eat into Potter's minutes.

Potter (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raptors.
Potter continues to work through a left hip contusion, though he was able to play in Friday's loss to the Bucks, when he finished with eight points, five rebounds and one assist over 16 minutes. Jarace Walker and Jay Huff would likely see an uptick in playing time if Potter is unable to play Sunday.
