Rick Carlisle was encouraged by the 20-10 start, but — "from there, we just did not play well enough. 152 points is very disappointing."

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 5h

An unacceptable performance from the Pacers, bad health or not. Didn't like a lot of what we saw.

They gave up 152pts on 55% shooting in a 152-128 loss to Utah. Nembhard had 25pts, McConnell with 12pts (in 11mins) in his season debut.

Next: Thu. at PHX

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 6h

Return of two PGs has been impactful for the Pacers. McConnell & Nembhard have 12pts each, the offense is flowing, and get this: just one turnover.

Pacers got ahead by 10, but then the Jazz used a 21-8 2Q run to take the lead, now 70-57 at the half. Defense!

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 9h

T.J. McConnell is set to make his season debut tonight at Utah. He missed the first 10 games of the season due to a left hamstring strain suffered in the preseason.

So both PGs are back — Nembhard & TJM — helping to restore some normalcy at point + with lineups.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 16h

Pacers signed Jeremiah Robinson-Earl to a second 10-day contract ahead of tonight’s game in Salt Lake City. His first expired today.

A classic look for the Pacers: their 2025-26 City Edition uniforms pay tribute to team history and will be worn 21 times this season.

Pacers unveil 2025-26 City Edition uniforms — a classic look to be worn 21 times

Indiana’s City Edition uniforms combine nods to the ABA era, Florence Griffith Joyner’s design legacy, and Bobby “Slick” Leonard’s trademark phrase — plus a new home court to match.

Pacers scheduled to wear their new City Edition uniforms for the next three games — but they have not yet been unveiled. 🔜

Pacers upgraded T.J. McConnell (left hamstring strain) to questionable for Tuesday in Salt Lake City. So is Taelon Peter.

Nembhard, Siakam, Nesmith are off the injury report.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 2d

Another offensively-challenged game for the Pacers, who drop to 1-9. Held to 34% shooting, outscored by 18 at the foul line, and they committed 22 turnovers.

Siakam and Nesmith given the night off on a back-to-back. No Steph either.

Next: Tue. at Utah

This game has quickly gotten away from the Pacers. It was tied at 65 with 3:31 left in the 3rd, now 14 unanswered scored by the Warriors.

Nembahrd has 12/7a, Jay Huff nearing a double-double (10/9). But again — shooting. They're at 33.8%.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 2d

Two additions to the Pacers’ injury report ahead of tonight at Golden State.

Pascal Siakam is out - rest
Aaron Nesmith is out - right forearm contusion

They lost last night in Denver, then didn’t get in until after 1am local time

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 3d

Another rough offensive night (36%) for the Pacers. They trailed most of the game in a 117-100 loss in Denver to begin a stretch with 7 of 10 on the road.

Jokic finished with 32-14-14. Nesmith scored 25 and Nembhard look good -- adding 22p, 6a in his return.

Next: Sun. at GSW

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 3d

Shorthanded Pacers down 20 in Denver and finishing with a lineup of RayJ Dennis, Monte Morris, Cody Martin, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, and Jay Huff.

It's the first of a back-to-back with a game in San Francisco in less than 24hrs.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 3d

Pacers’ deficit is nine at half — after falling behind by as many 19pts. They shot 33% and were led by 15pts from Nesmith. Offense was hard to come by.

Jokic has 16-10-7-5t.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 3d

Pacers at Denver tonight, 9 ET. No Gordon or Murray for Nuggets.

Andrew Nembhard back and in the starting lineup — along with Nesmith, Walker, Siakam, and Jackson.

Pacers two-way guard Taelon Peter was added to the injury report.

Questionable — right groin soreness.

They begin a Denver/Golden State back-to-back tonight.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 3d

Positive Pacers injury report note: Andrew Nembhard, who’s been out since after opening night, has been upgraded to questionable and is on track to play tonight.

It’s Game 1 of a 4-game trip out west, beginning in Denver.

Monte Morris has signed with the Pacers.

They considered signing him before camp. To create room, they waived Mac McClung.

Pacers begin a four-game trip in Denver tomorrow — and flew out this morning. Different than usual.

Adversity Defines Pacers’ First Two Weeks: Injuries, New Faces, and Frustration

Indiana’s season has unraveled in the first two weeks — with many injuries, hardship signings, and even Rick Carlisle getting tossed as frustrations mount.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 6d

Furphy (ankle) and QJackson (hamstring) "are out for the foreseeable future," Carlisle says. At least 10 days (through the road trip), but no timeline.

Nembhard & Mathurin are making progress. But IND is w/o 8.

Which is why they added Robinson-Earl, Martin on hardship deals.

Scott Agness @scottagness.bsky.social · 6d

Now official: Pacers added forward Cody Martin on a 10-day hardship contract ahead of tonight's game vs. Brooklyn.

He will wear No. 11.
