Tyrese Haliburton (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Dallas. The 2020 No. 12 overall pick has been banged up of late, missing three games due to a hip injury before returning for the March 11 meeting with the Milwaukee Bucks. He played the following two contests. However, Haliburton was sidelined for Monday's overtime win over the Minnesota Timberwolves because of back soreness.
Pascal Siakam (personal),
Myles Turner (hip), and
Aaron Nesmith (ankle) also weren't available for that one, paving the way for increased production from
Bennedict Mathurin and
Obi Toppin, with the duo combining for 56 points. But fantasy managers shouldn't expect a duplicate performance from the pair even if Haliburton can't get back on the floor, considering Turner and Nesmith are off the injury report, and Siakam has a chance to play.

Tyrese Haliburton (back) will sit out Monday's contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He was initially handed a questionable tag on the injury report due to back soreness but has now been officially ruled out. With Haliburton out of the lineup,
T.J. McConnell and
Andrew Nembhard will be looked at to provide more playmaking.
Ben Sheppard might also get more time on the floor, though his play generally doesn't translate to fantasy basketball.

Tyrese Haliburton (back) is questionable for Monday's meeting with the Minnesota Timberwolves. He recently missed time because of a hip injury. However, Haliburton was back on the floor for Indiana's last three contests, recently amassing 24 points, 15 assists, six boards, and five steals in Saturday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. But if the 25-year-old can't suit up,
Andrew Nembhard will likely slide over to the one, with
Bennedict Mathurin potentially entering the starting lineup. Mathurin has averaged 16.2 points and 5.8 rebounds in 45 starts this season, although he may be more productive if
Myles Turner (hip) and
Aaron Nesmith (ankle) don't play. In addition,
Pascal Siakam (personal) has already been ruled out for Monday night.

Tyrese Haliburton (hip) won't play on Monday against the Bulls. The 25-year-old has missed the last two games because of a hip injury. But he was observed taking shots on Monday night, so fantasy managers shouldn't rule him out when the Pacers meet the Bucks on Tuesday.
T.J. McConnell (ankle) is questionable, meaning
Andrew Nembhard may be tasked with handling the ball more than usual.
