Peter recorded three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) across six minutes during Friday's 119-86 victory over Washington.
Peter moved back into the rotation, albeit for a garbage-time appearance only. He has appeared in 12 games thus far, exceeding 10 minutes on four occasions. He is firmly down the pecking order and can be ignored in all fantasy formats at this point.

Pacers' Taelon Peter: Plays 17 minutes in NBA debut
Rotowire
Peter accumulated three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one assist and one steal in 17 minutes during Thursday's 141-135 double-overtime loss to Oklahoma City.
With T.J. McConnell (hamstring), Kam Jones (back) and Quenton Jackson (hamstring) sidelined, Peter, a rookie second-round pick, was part of Indiana's rotation during the regular-season opener. The per-minute production wasn't there, but it was encouraging to see the youngster gain the trust of head coach Rick Carlisle, especially against the defending champs. Peter could see more usage if Andrew Nembhard, who left this game with a shoulder injury, joins the aforementioned trio on the short-term injury list.

Pacers' Taelon Peter: Fills box score in preseason loss
Rotowire
Peter tallied nine points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block over 22 minutes during Friday's 133-104 preseason loss to the Spurs.
Peter put together a nice stat line in Friday's preseason finale, as he led the bench in assists while finishing second in scoring among Indiana reserves behind Cameron Payne (10). Peter has scored at least nine points in three of four preseason games, but with the Pacers flush with depth in the backcourt, the rookie second-rounder will likely see most of his playing time during the 2025-26 campaign in the G League.

Pacers' Taelon Peter: Scores team-high 18 points
Rotowire
Peter notched 18 points (6-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals across 27 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 116-101 preseason win over the Thunder.
Peter made the most of his opportunity off the bench, and he finished with the second-most minutes played in this game behind Jarace Walker's 31. Peter was selected No. 54 overall in the 2025 NBA Draft out of Liberty and is vying for a roster spot ahead of Opening Night. However, as a two-way player, he might be ticketed to open the campaign in the G League with the Noblesville Boom.
