Larry Nance Jr. (IND): Day-To-Day
Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said Nance is limited to 5-on-0 work at training camp after suffering a hamstring injury just over two weeks ago, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.
Rimside Brief
Larry Nance Jr. remains on a day‑to‑day status after a hamstring strain that limited him to 5‑on‑0 drills at the Pacers’ training camp. The forward, who averages 3.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game, is expected to be cleared to return on October 7, 2026. Until then, his participation will be closely monitored, and his minutes will likely be restricted.
Indiana is struggling this season, sitting at 19‑63 and 14th in the Eastern Conference, with a power ranking of 26th overall. The team has lost its last two games and gone 3‑7 in its last ten, posting a net rating of –7.9. Nance’s absence adds to the Pacers’ depth concerns, especially as they attempt to improve their record and climb out of the league’s lower tier. Watching how the coaching staff adjusts the front‑court rotation and whether other role players can step up will be key in the coming weeks.
