Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Probable for Sunday
Nesmith (hamstring) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against Brooklyn.
Nesmith made his regular-season debut in Friday's loss to the Mavericks, ditching his questionable tag due to a left hamstring strain. He played limited minutes off the bench in his return and could be on a minutes restriction if he's cleared to play Sunday. If the 27-year-old wing remains limited or is ultimately ruled out, Jarace Walker and Kelly Oubre could see increased minutes.

Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Ruled out for regular-season opener
Nesmith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against New Orleans.
Nesmith missed Indiana's final two preseason contests due to a left hamstring strain, and he'll remain on the inactive list for the club's regular-season opener. His next chance to play will come Friday against Dallas. With the 27-year-old forward out, Kelly Oubre, Jarace Walker and Ben Sheppard are candidates for increased burn.

Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Out with hamstring issue
Nesmith (hamstring) will not play in Friday's preseason finale against Milwaukee, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Nesmith revealed Thursday that a hamstring injury kept him out of Tuesday's exhibition against Oklahoma City, though he described himself as feeling "pretty good." The 27-year-old forward will finish the preseason on the sidelines, and his availability for Indiana's regular-season opener remains uncertain. Kelly Oubre and Ben Sheppard could see additional opportunities on the wing if Nesmith's absence extends into the regular season.

Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Taking night off

Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Not starting Tuesday

Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Nets 19 points with four triples
Nesmith scored 19 points (7-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT) over 16 minutes in Wednesday's 123-112 preseason win over the Timberwolves.
Nesmith was dialed in from deep, and he led his team in scoring and three-pointers made despite logging just 16 minutes. Nesmith should be a reliable source of points and triples this season, but he doesn't contribute much in the other statistical categories.

Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Looking to rebound in 2026-27
Nesmith continued to establish himself as one of Indiana's most valuable two-way wings during the 2025-26 season, but injuries limited him to 45 regular-season appearances.
Nesmith's combination of three-point shooting, defensive versatility and energy made him an ideal fit alongside the Pacers' core. With Indiana largely standing pat this offseason, Nesmith should continue to occupy a prominent role in the starting lineup. In 2025-26, he averaged 13.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.9 dimes and 2.3 three-pointers for a shorthanded Pacers squad.

Pacers' Aaron Nesmith: Won't face Brooklyn
Nesmith (neck) is out for Thursday's game against the Nets.
Nesmith is one of several regulars who won't be playing Thursday, and the Pacers aren't expected to risk him with three games left in the regular season. With Nesmith out, look for Ethan Thompson, who's on a two-way contract, should have a bigger role in the Pacers' backcourt.
