Ben Sheppard Questionable for Pacers with Oblique Strain
Ben Sheppard of the Indiana Pacers is dealing with a left oblique strain. His status is questionable for upcoming games. This injury has been affecting him since November 17, 2024, and he has missed multiple weeks already.
What It Means
This injury means that Ben Sheppard might not be able to play soon. He has been out for several weeks already due to this oblique strain. His stats for the season include an average of 5.8 points per game and shooting 42.4% from the field.
The Pacers will need to rely on other players while Sheppard recovers. Aaron Nesmith, who plays both PF and SF, could see more minutes in his absence. Johnny Furphy might also get more playing time as he ranks third in the SF depth chart.
