Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Season-high assists in win
Sheppard chipped in 12 points (4-6 FG, 4-6 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 133-119 victory over the Pistons.
With Bennedict Mathurin battling an illness, Sheppard got a considerable bump in playing time during Wednesday's win against the Pistons. The 23-year-old guard posted a season-high four assists against Detroit while playing a season-high 33 minutes for the Pacers and scoring in double digits for the fifth time during the 2024-25 campaign with 12 points.

Sheppard is starting in Wednesday's game against the Pistons, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Bennedict Mathurin (illness) is out for the Pacers on Wednesday, allowing Sheppard to make his eighth start of the season. Sheppard has averaged 4.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.9 threes and 0.7 steals in 26.6 minutes across seven games as a starter this season.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Moves to bench
Sheppard will come off the bench Thursday against Detroit, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
Aaron Nesmith is returning from a 35-game absence Thursday, but he'll be operating under a minutes restriction. Bennedict Mathurin is suspended for this contest, however, so there are still plenty of minutes up for grabs in the second unit.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Starting sans Haliburton
Head coach Rick Carlisle said that Sheppard will start in Tuesday's game against Cleveland, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
With Tyrese Haliburton (groin) sidelined Tuesday, Sheppard will step into the starting five. The swingman has struggled in his six starts thus far, during which he has averaged 3.8 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists while shooting 25.0 percent from the field in 25.8 minutes per contest.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Muted performance in win
Sheppard had five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and two steals over 22 minutes during Sunday's 108-93 win over the Cavaliers.
Despite seeing at least 20 minutes in four straight games, Sheppard's production has left a lot to be desired from a fantasy perspective. During that stretch, he averaged 4.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.8 three-pointers on 38.9 percent shooting from the field.

Sheppard is not in the Pacers' starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Celtics, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Good to go Monday
Sheppard (oblique) will play in Monday's game against the Warriors.
Sheppard will be active for a third straight game after missing 14 consecutive contests due to an oblique injury. His availability is especially encouraging considering Monday's game is the second of a back-to-back. He's played 16 and 17 minutes, respectively, since coming back from the injury.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Iffy Monday
Sheppard (oblique) is questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors.
After missing 14 straight games, Sheppard has appeared in two straight, including the first half of Indiana's back-to-back set against the Kings on Sunday. Sheppard scored 14 points (5-5 FG, 4-4 3Pt) in 17 minutes during that contest after scoring only two points (1-4 FG) in 16 minutes during his return against the Suns on Thursday.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Perfect shooting night Sunday
Sheppard registered 14 points (5-5 FG, 4-4 3Pt) and one rebound in 17 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 122-95 victory over the Kings.
It was the second-year guard's second game back from an oblique strain, and Sheppard looked fully healthy on a perfect night from the floor. The four made threes were his highest total since a 6-for-11 performance from long distance Nov. 1 against the Pelicans. The 2023 first-round pick had worked his way into the starting five prior to getting hurt, but with Aaron Nesmith (ankle) currently sidelined, Sheppard is probably ticketed for a key role on the Pacers' second unit.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Good to go Sunday
Sheppard (oblique) is available for Sunday's game against the Kings, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Sheppard returned to action in Thursday's win over the Suns following a multi-week absence due to a left oblique strain. The 23-year-old will likely operate under a minutes restriction as the club works him back to playing form.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Questionable to play Sunday
Sheppard is questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings due to a left oblique strain.
Sheppard played 16 minutes Thursday in his first appearance since Nov. 17 due to the same injury he's listed with ahead of Sunday's game. A decision on Sheppard's status will be made closer to Sunday's 6 p.m. ET tipoff, though if he's available, he should see minutes off the bench but not much of a prominent role.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Gets 16 minutes in return
Sheppard (oblique) recorded two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one steal and one block across 16 minutes in Thursday's 120-111 win over the Suns.
Suiting up for the first time since Nov. 17 after a 14-game absence due to a left oblique strain, Sheppard served as a bench player. He had started in his last five appearances prior to straining his oblique, but Andrew Nembhard was sidelined for those games with an injury of his own and has since returned to take his spot on the top unit. Rookie Johnny Furphy moved out of the Indiana rotation Thursday to open up a spot for Sheppard, who isn't likely to see his playing time pick up dramatically now that the Pacers are at close to full strength on the wing.

Sheppard (oblique) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Suns, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Sheppard will see the court for the first time since Nov. 17 after recovering from a strained left oblique. The team stated the 23-year-old will have his minutes limited Thursday, though no range was provided.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Upgraded to questionable
Sheppard (oblique) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Suns.
Sheppard has been sidelined since Nov. 17 due to a strained left oblique, but he's listed on the injury report as questionable for the first time since sustaining the injury. While he'd almost certainly be under a minutes restriction if cleared, Sheppard seems to be close to full health.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Slated to miss multiple weeks
Coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Sheppard (oblique) will miss multiple weeks, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
An MRI showed Sheppard's injury is worse than initially anticipated, so he'll join Andrew Nembhard (knee) and Aaron Nesmith (ankle) on the long-term injury list. Quenton Jackson has been the next man up, while Bennedict Mathurin continues to excel as a starter. Sheppard will likely be evaluated again around Christmas.

Pacers' Ben Sheppard: Another absence coming
Sheppard (oblique) is out for Sunday's game against the Wizards.
Sheppard will miss a fourth consecutive contest with this oblique injury, and there's no timetable for when he'll return to the court. Jarace Walker and Quenton Jackson will continue to see more time at the small forward role, as the Pacers remain very depleted in terms of their wing depth. Sheppard's next chance to play will come against the Pelicans on Monday on the second half of a back-to-back set.
