Pascal Siakam

Siakam has been dealing with a right elbow issue for a few weeks, and Sunday's game will be the first he missed since March 17. Jarace Walker is the likely replacement in the starting lineup, but the second-year forward offers limited streaming value when the rest of the Pacers' rotation is whole. Walker is not a must-stream player, but desperate deep-league managers can consider it.

Siakam is out for Sunday's game against the Nuggets due to right olecranon bursitis.

Siakam was questionable with an elbow injury, but ended up having one of his better games of late Friday against the Jazz. The 31-year-old power forward impacted the game in a number of ways. He had 22 points on 16 shots including two made three-pointers. Siakam also chipped in with five rebounds and five assists. He also made his presence known on the defensive end with three steals and four blocks. Siakam has provided fifth-round fantasy value over the last month as he continues to have a strong season.

Siakam popped up on the injury report with an elbow issue while Nesmith was dealing with an ankle injury. Both are available Friday as Pacers coach Rick Carlisle emphatically told reporters before the game both players along with Bennedict Mathurin will play against the Jazz.
