Jalen Smith Questionable For Season Opener
2 years agoIndiana Pacers forward Jalen Smith (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. The big man is dealing with right knee soreness, although it's unknown how severe the issue is. The 22-year-old is expected to have a breakout season, mainly after averaging 14.6 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks while shooting 45.5% from deep in eight starts in 2021-22. Nevertheless, if Smith isn't out there for the opener, Oshae Brissett, who has double-double upside, will likely take his place at the four spot.
