Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Iffy for Saturday
Sheppard is questionable for Saturday's game against San Antonio due to a left ankle sprain.
Sheppard could test out the issue during pregame warmups before the Pacers update his status. Indiana has a plethora of players listed as questionable for Saturday, meaning the team could need to summon some two-way players from the G League's Noblesville Boom for reinforcements.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Muted production again in loss
Sheppard amassed 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt), one rebound, one assist, one block and one steal across 19 minutes during Wednesday's 127-119 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Sheppard continues to do very little with the playing time he is given, developing into one of the more underwhelming players in the league. Although his role has increased of late, it only highlights his shortcomings. Through 58 games this season, Sheppard has averaged just 7.0 points and 1.3 three-pointers in 21.5 minutes per contest.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Available Tuesday
Sheppard (ankle) will play Tuesday against New York.
Sheppard will make his return to the hardwood following a one-game absence caused by an ankle injury. He's been unable to make much of an impact of late, as he's been held to single digits in the scoring column in six of his last seven showings.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Questionable with ankle sprain
Sheppard (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
A sprained left ankle could cost Sheppard a second consecutive outing Tuesday. The Pacers could be severely undermanned versus New York, so the team could need to call upon some of their two-way players from the G League's Noblesville Boom to help pick up the slack and soak up extra minutes.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Not playing Sunday
Sheppard (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bucks, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Sheppard popped up on Saturday's injury report due to a left ankle sprain. The injury is severe enough for him to miss Sunday's game, and his next chance to play is Tuesday against the Knicks. Sheppard has come off the bench in each of his last six outings and has averaged 20.0 minutes per game over that stretch. In his absence, those minutes will be absorbed by the likes of Kobe Brown, Kam Jones and T.J. McConnell.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Questionable for Sunday
Sheppard is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucks due to a left ankle sprain.
The ankle sprain is a new concern for Sheppard, who hasn't missed a game since Dec. 29. With the Pacers rolling out a lengthy injury report, the team could be very shorthanded Sunday. If Sheppard is ruled out, Kam Jones and Taelon Peter would be candidates to rejoin the rotation.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Passive performance Friday
Sheppard finished with eight points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal in 20 minutes during Friday's 131-118 loss to the Wizards.
Sheppard continues to be largely underwhelming, despite the fact that his role appears relatively secure, something that can't be said for many of his teammates. In 13 games over the past month, he has averaged 7.5 points and 0.5 three-pointers in 18.0 minutes per contest. Although there is a chance he suits up on most nights moving forward, his overall ceiling is too low to warrant significant fantasy attention.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Passive again Saturday
Sheppard recorded eight points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal in 18 minutes during Saturday's 129-124 victory over Atlanta.
Sheppard continues to do very little with his time on the floor, scoring in single digits for the 15th straight game. Despite featuring in the rotation on a regular basis, Sheppard has been unable to make any sort of noise when it comes to fantasy value. During that span, he has averaged just 5.5 points and 1.3 three-pointers in 17.1 minutes per game.
