Coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Nembhard (knee) will miss at least two weeks, Tony East of SI.com reports. With Nembhard and Aaron Nesmith (ankle) sidelined for the foreseeable future, Bennedict Mathurin, Ben Sheppard, Jarace Walker and Quenton Jackson are all candidates for increased roles moving forward. Nembhard initially tried to play through the knee soreness, and it's unclear if he suffered a setback or just wasn't performing up to standards.

Andrew Nembhard Latest News
Slated to miss multiple weeks
Coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Nembhard (knee) will miss at least two weeks, Tony East of SI.com reports. With Nembhard and Aaron Nesmith (ankle) sidelined for the foreseeable future, Bennedict Mathurin, Ben Sheppard, Jarace Walker and Quenton Jackson are all candidates for increased roles moving forward. Nembhard initially tried to play through the knee soreness, and it's unclear if he suffered a setback or just wasn't performing up to standards.
Questionable for Sunday
Nembhard (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Knicks. Nembhard was a late scratch for Friday's loss to the Hornets due to left knee soreness, and he's questionable to feature in this upcoming contest due to the same injury. Nembhard has already missed two of Indiana's last four games with knee problems.
Late scratch Friday
Nembhard has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Hornets due to left knee soreness. Nembhard was initially announced in the starting lineup for this contest, but he's been scratched from the first unit due to this knee injury. Ben Sheppard will get the starting nod in his place.
Will play Friday
Nembhard (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Hornets. As expected, Nembhard will make his third straight appearance Friday despite dealing with a sore left knee. Expect him to handle his regular workload in the backcourt alongside Tyrese Haliburton, which means he should play around 30 minutes.
Likely to play Friday
Nembhard (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Hornets. Nembhard is expected to make his third straight appearance Friday despite dealing with a sore left knee. If Nembhard is upgraded to available, he should remain in the starting lineup and log roughly 30 minutes of action.
Will play Wednesday
Nembhard (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Magic. Nembhard will shake off a questionable tag and suit up for a second straight game after missing a Nov. 1 loss to the Pelicans. On Monday, he posted 11 points (4-9 FG), three rebounds and three assists in 29 minutes during a win in Dallas.
Back on injury report
Nembhard (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Magic. After missing a loss to the Pelicans on Friday, Nembhard returned to action Monday against the Mavericks, posting 11 points (4-9 FG), three rebounds and three assists in 29 minutes during the 134-127 win. Nembhard may be a regular on the injury report for a while, but the Pacers will need him to gut it out, especially with Aaron Nesmith (ankle) sidelined indefinitely.
Cleared to play Monday
Nembhard (knee) is available to play in Monday's matchup against the Mavericks. Nembhard missed Friday's loss to the Pelicans due to left knee tendinitis, which also caused him to sit for most of Wednesday's win over the Celtics. It is unclear whether the 24-year-old will operate under a minutes restriction with Aaron Nesmith (ankle) ruled out, though Bennedict Mathurin and Ben Sheppard could benefit with more playing time.
Trending to play Monday
Head coach Rick Carlisle said he expects Nembhard (knee) to play against the Mavericks on Monday, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports. Nembhard missed Friday's game against the Pelicans due to left knee tendinitis, which caused him to sit for most of Wednesday's game against the Celtics. Nembhard could be on a minutes restriction while easing back from his injury, and if that's the case, expect Bennedict Mathurin to see an even bigger role, especially with Aaron Nesmith sidelined with an ankle injury.
