    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) available for Game 2 Wed.
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.

      Advice: As expected, Haliburton is available and will start Game 2. He only attempted six shots in Game 1, which is way too low for a player of his caliber. Look for Haliburton to be far more involved in the Pacers offense as a scorer, which could cut into his assist tally. Rotoworld 16 minutes ago
       
    • Cleared for Game 2
      Haliburton (back) is available for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton has been battling back spasms throughout the playoffs, but he'll play through the issue once again Wednesday. However, it's the back spasms could impact his effectiveness considering he scored just six points in 36 minutes during Game 1 on Monday. Rotowire.com Today, 4:13 pm
       
    • Out for the season
      Robinson suffered a stress injury to his surgically repaired left ankle this week, which will sideline him for at least 6-to-8 weeks, the Knicks announced Tuesday.

      Advice: This is a brutal blow for the Knicks, as it ends Robinson's 2023-24 campaign. Robinson will not need additional surgery and is expected to make a full recovery before next season's training camp. Robinson made just 31 appearances this season, posting averages of 5.6 points, 8.5 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 24.8 minutes. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:28 pm
       
    • Shams: Mitchell Robinson (ankle) out 6-8 weeks
      Mitchell Robinson has sustained a stress injury in his left ankle and will miss six-to-eight weeks, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

      Advice: Robinson’s season is likely done, since the earliest he could return would be Game 6 of the NBA Finals, based on this timeline. He only played 12 minutes in Game 1 of this series, with Isaiah Hartenstein logging the majority of the minutes at center. Precious Achiuwa may log a few minutes off the bench, but Hartenstein will continue to be the primary center option. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:18 pm
       
    • Mitchell Robinson (ankle) out Wednesday vs. Pacers
      Mitchell Robinson (left ankle injury management) has been ruled out for Wednesday’s Knicks-Pacers matchup.

      Advice: Robison was a non-factor in Game 1 of the second round and only totaled two points with two rebounds in 12 minutes. His absence will give Precious Achiuwa a chance to break into the rotation. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:14 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) questionable Wednesday
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s Pacers-Knicks matchup.

      Advice: Haliburton has struggled as of late and scored just six points his last time out. His lingering back issue hasn’t caused him to miss time, but T.J. McConnell could continue to be a more significant contributor if Haliburton doesn’t get back on track. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:07 pm
       
    • Won't play Wednesday
      Robinson is listed as out for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Pacers due to left ankle injury management.

      Advice: Robinson logged 12 minutes in Game 1 but seemingly aggravated the surgically repaired ankle that has bothered him throughout the playoffs. Precious Achiuwa will likely receive increased playing time in Robinson's absence, while the latter's next chance to suit up is Game 3 on Friday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:35 pm
       
    • Listed as questionable again
      Haliburton (back) is questionable for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton continues to deal with back spasms that popped up ahead of Game 4 of the opening-round series versus Milwaukee. He scored only six points in Game 1 (2-6 FG) against the Knicks, but he did have eight assists and four steals. If the back issues worsen, we may see more of T.J. McConnell, who was fantastic off the bench during Monday's loss. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:33 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton scores six points in Game 1 loss
      Tyrese Haliburton shot 2-of-6 from the field in Monday’s 121-117 loss to the Knicks, recording a stat line of six points, two rebounds, eight assists, four steals, and two 3-pointers in 36 minutes.

      Advice: The Pacers hope this series will work out similarly to their first-round triumph over Milwaukee regarding Haliburton’s offensive production. He reached double figures in the final five games of that series after scoring nine points in the first-round opener, and the All-Star point guard was limited to six on Monday night. Haliburton did rack up eight assists and four steals, so all wasn’t lost for DFS players. However, he’ll need to do more as a scorer in this series, even with Indiana’s overall firepower. Haliburton will look to rebound in Game 2 on Wednesday. Rotoworld Monday, 7:42 pm
