Indiana Pacers guard T.J. McConnell (wrist) will return on Tuesday night against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Indiana Pacers center Goga Bitadze (foot) is questionable leading up to Tuesday's battle against Philadelphia.

Malcolm Brogdon Still Dealing With Back Soreness
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (back) is uncertain for Tuesday's clash against Philadelphia. However, DFS managers shouldn't expect Brogdon to be in the lineup, primarily since he's missed his last eight contests because of lower back soreness.

Chris Duarte To Miss The Rest Of The Season

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (back) won't play on Sunday against Detroit. The 29-year-old has missed his previous seven games because of back soreness.

Goga Bitadze Available Against Detroit
Indiana Pacers center Goga Bitadze (foot) is listed as available for Sunday's meeting with the Detroit Pistons. The 22-year-old has been a frequent mention on the league's injury report for a while now because of right foot soreness, so the update isn't much of a surprise.
