Top Jarace Walker News

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Won't play Game 6

    Walker (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Thunder.

    Walker will miss a sixth straight game during the NBA Finals due to a sprained right ankle. The next opportunity for him to get back on the floor will be Sunday if the Pacers force a Game 7 in Oklahoma City.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Officially ruled out for Game 5

    Walker (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Thunder.

    Walker will miss his fifth straight game due to a sprained right ankle. The 21-year-old is making progress in his recovery, though head coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that it's "very unlikely" he'll play during the Finals, according to Dan Devine of Yahoo Sports.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Unlikely to play in NBA Finals

    Head coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Walker (ankle) is improving and off crutches, though it's "very unlikely" that he'll return during the NBA Finals, Dan Devine of Yahoo Sports reports.

    While Walker hasn't officially been ruled out for Monday's Game 5 against the Thunder, he can be considered doubtful at best for the remainder of the series until the Pacers provide another update. The 21-year-old still has a slight limp but is making progress in his recovery. However, his season is expected to be over due to the sprained right ankle he sustained in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Knicks.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Won't play in Game 4

    Walker (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's matchup with the Thunder in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.

    Walker hasn't been available at any point during the NBA Finals after spraining his right ankle in the Pacers' series-clinching win over the Knicks on May 31 in the Eastern Conference Finals. Even if the second-year forward makes enough progress in his recovery to become available later in the series, it's unclear if the Pacers would be comfortable inserting him in the rotation right away coming off the injury.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Won't play Wednesday

    Walker (ankle) has been ruled out for Game 3 of the NBA Finals against the Thunder.

    Walker will miss a third straight game during the NBA Finals as he continues to nurse a sprained right ankle. The Pacers will likely keep leaning on Obi Toppin to help shoulder the load. The next chance for Walker to get back on the floor will be Friday for Game 4.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Out at least two games

    Walker (ankle) will miss the first two games of the NBA Finals, Dustin Dopirak of the Indianapolis Star reports.

    During his weekly radio interview with James Boyd and Kevin Bowen on 107.5 FM The Fan, Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said Walker will be out "a while." The NBA Finals are very spread out, however, which gives Walker more time for treatment and healing. He's averaged 9.8 minutes in the postseason, appearing in 12 out of 16 games. With Walker sidelined, a handful of those minutes could go to Obi Toppin.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Spotted on crutches post-game

    Walker (ankle) was spotted on crutches after the Pacers defeated the Knicks in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Saturday by a 125-108 score, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

    Walker was taken off the court in the fourth quarter and didn't return to the game, finishing the contest with two points and a rebound across seven minutes. He'll have a few days to recover before Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals against the Thunder on Thursday, but even if he's available, he shouldn't have a major impact from a fantasy perspective. Walker has logged more than 20 minutes off the bench just once during the team's current playoff run.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Questionable to return Saturday

    Walker was taken to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Saturday's game against the Knicks due to an apparent ankle injury and is questionable to return, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

    Walker was taken off the court, helped by James Johnson and a trainer, after Karl-Anthony Towns scored on him. Walker doesn't typically have a big role, though, so his potential absence shouldn't affect many fantasy outcomes. Prior to exiting the court, he recorded two points and a rebound across seven minutes.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Sliding back to bench

    Walker isn't in the starting lineup for Saturday's Game 1 against the Bucks.

    Walker started in Indiana's final two regular-season games but will head back to the bench due to the team's typical starters returning to action for the playoffs. Walker has averaged 8.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 16.1 minutes across his previous 10 appearances coming off the bench.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Getting start vs. Orlando

    Walker will be in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Magic, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Walker will enter the starting lineup Friday since the Pacers will rest all five of their regular starters. Walker has averaged 9.0 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game in his previous three starts this season.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Solid display in 15 minutes

    Walker provided 15 points (6-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt) and three rebounds over 15 minutes during Thursday's 114-112 win over the Cavaliers.

    Walker made the most of his cameo off the bench in this win, missing just one of his seven shots from the field and bringing energy on the glass as well. The Pacers will rest most of their starters in the second leg of a back-to-back set Friday against the Magic, so Walker is among the players who could end up having a sizable bump in minutes as a result.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Efficient performance Sunday

    Walker totaled 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-3 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and one steal over 21 minutes during Sunday's 125-120 victory over the Nuggets.

    Obi Toppin got the start at power forward due to Pascal Siakam (elbow) being sidelined, but Walker took advantage of an uptick in minutes off the bench and delivered a decent output. Walker has played at least 20 minutes in five of his last six appearances off the bench, scoring in double digits five times over that stretch.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Fares well off bench

    Walker ended with 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), two assists and two steals over 22 minutes during Monday's 111-109 win over Sacramento.

    Myles Turner (illness) missed Monday's game, but he's considered day-to-day. Thomas Bryant drew the start in Turner's place, but Walker made a much bigger impact in the same amount of minutes (22). For now, it's unclear if Turner will be ready for Wednesday's game against Charlotte.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Solid output off bench Thursday

    Walker amassed 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and one block across 25 minutes during Thursday's 162-109 victory over the Wizards.

    Walker was one of several bench players who made the most of the extended playing time in this 53-point win for the Pacers, and he finished with a solid line in his 25-minute cameo. Don't expect Walker to produce at this rate regularly, though. He's going to see decent minutes as a steady member of the second unit, but he's not likely to produce at a high level in most games. He's averaging only 5.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game since the beginning of March.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Not starting Wednesday

    Walker is not starting for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    As expected, Walker will return to his regular bench role since the Pacers will start their regular pairing of Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner in the frontcourt. Walker is averaging just 3.2 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 11.1 minutes over 10 games since the All-Star break.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Good to go against Dallas

    Walker (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

    Despite dealing with a sprained right ankle, Walker is good to go Wednesday but will likely revert back to the bench in the return of Pascal Siakam (personal). Walker started Monday's game against Minnesota, but he's averaged just 3.2 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 11.1 minutes over 10 games since the All-Star break.

  • Pacers' Jarace Walker: Iffy for Wednesday

    Walker (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against Dallas.

    Walker presumably sustained the right ankle sprain during Monday's overtime win over Minnesota, during which he limped to the bench after an awkward landing, per Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis. If the 21-year-old forward is sidelined Wednesday, Ben Sheppard and Obi Toppin could see a bump in minutes.
