Bryant won't start Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.
With Myles Turner (knee) sidelined, Bryant made his eighth start of the season Friday and posted 10 points and four blocks in 20 minutes. It's unclear if Turner will play his usual minutes, so Bryant could still see an increased role Sunday, even though he's coming off the bench.

Rotowire
Bryant ended with two points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one block over 12 minutes during Saturday's 108-103 win over the Nets.
Bryant played limited minutes again Saturday, continuing to struggle whenever Myles Turner is healthy. Although he has both hands on the backup job, Bryant's inability to consistently impact the game has resulted in him playing limited minutes, even for a backup.

Pacers' Thomas Bryant: Modest showing off bench
Rotowire
Bryant had seven points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one block across 16 minutes during Sunday's 127-112 victory over the Bulls.
The veteran big man continues to operate as a strict reserve for the Pacers while starting center Myles Turner is healthy. Through his last six outings, Bryant has averaged 7.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 0.7 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.3 blocks in 13.9 minutes while shooting 53.1 percent from the field. As long as Turner and the rest of Indiana's frontcourt stays healthy, Bryant won't carry nearly as much streaming appeal in fantasy leagues.

Pacers' Thomas Bryant: Productive outing in loss

It was a productive outing by Bryant, who continues to start at center for the Pacers while Myles Turner sits on the shelf with a neck injury. Through four games in Indiana's starting lineup this year, Bryant has been serviceable with averages of 15.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.5 blocks in 27.2 minutes while shooting 54.0 percent from the field.

Pacers' Thomas Bryant: Solid showing in spot start
Rotowire
Bryant closed Saturday's 124-117 loss to the Lakers with 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), eight rebounds and four assists in 23 minutes.
Myles Turner (neck) missed his first game after getting injured Thursday, but Bryant didn't see a significant increase in his workload despite getting the start -- Obi Toppin played 22 minutes off the bench as the duo split the minutes in the paint. Bryant did lead the Pacers in rebounds on the afternoon, while the four assists tied his season high -- a mark he set in Indiana's last game, after Turner exited the court early in the first quarter. If Turner continues to be held out, Bryant should see a small bump in his numbers, but starter-level minutes and production will likely elude him.

Rotowire
Bryant is in the Pacers' starting lineup against the Lakers on Saturday, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Bryant will make his third start of the year Saturday due to the absence of Myles Turner (neck). With Turner out and Bryant starting, Obi Toppin and Enrique Freeman could see some playing time at center when the Pacers go with a small-ball lineup. Bryant finished Thursday's 119-112 win over the Clippers with 12 points, 10 rebounds, four assists and one block over 28 minutes.

Pacers' Thomas Bryant: Nabs first double-double of year
Rotowire
Bryant registered 12 points (4-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one block across 28 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 119-112 victory over the Clippers.
The double-double was Bryant's first of the season, as the 27-year-old center took advantage of an opportunity for a bigger role after Myles Turner (concussion) headed to the locker room after playing only six minutes. Obi Toppin also wound up seeing 28 minutes off the bench Thursday, and both players could be handed larger workloads if Turner misses additional time.
