Thu Dec 16 2021 | 18:16 | Malcolm Brogdon Will Sit Thursday |
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) will not play Thursday against the Detroit Pistons. Brogdon is a late addition to the injury report as he is reportedly dealing with Achilles soreness. For someone who misses as many games as Brogdon does, hopefully there is nothing serious going on here. With T.J. McConnell (wrist) also out, Caris LeVert will likely take over ball handling duties. Brad Wanamaker, Chris Duarte and Justin Holiday could also see some more action. |

Tue Dec 14 2021 | 08:20 | Malcolm Brogdon Logs A 23-6-8 Line Monday Night |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon had a good all-around performance against Stephen Curry and the Warriors on Monday, finishing a 102-100 loss with 23 points, six rebounds and eight assists. He shot 7-for-14 from the field and 8-for-10 at the foul line with a 1-for-3 record from deep. Brogdon's night also included two steals and two turnovers in 36 minutes. The 29-year-old has struggled with his shot lately and thus Brogdon's scoring output has been disappointing, but he returned to form at a good time. Brogdon has a special matchup against Milwaukee on Wednesday. He's averaged 20.5 points 3.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists in two games against his former team this season. |

Tue Dec 7 2021 | 07:42 | Malcolm Brogdon Has 17 Points, Eight Assists Monday Night |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon had a solid game in Monday's win over Washington, finishing with 17 points, six rebounds and eight assists. He shot 6-for-13 from the field and 5-for-5 at the charity stripe with two turnovers in 38 minutes. Brogdon had a miserable 4-for-14 night from the field in the previous game against Miami, so he will have regained some rhythm from this performance. The Heat have been one of the best defensive teams in the league against point guards this season and Brogdon will face another such side on Wednesday in the Knicks. They have limited point guards to just 38.3 percent shooting this season. |

Thu Dec 2 2021 | 09:02 | Malcolm Brogdon Leads Pacers With 27 Points |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon scored a team-high 27 points on 10-for-20 shooting in Wednesday's loss to Atlanta, adding nine assists to his line with six rebounds and three steals. He didn't commit a single turnover in 36 minutes of action but frustrated a few fantasy managers with a 1-for-6 effort from downtown. Brogdon has found himself in a scoring slump since the middle of November, but he's started to recover with back-to-back 20-point efforts. He needs to find an answer to Miami's tough defense on Friday to continue the streak. The Heat have the best defensive record in the league against opposing points guards this season, allowing them to shoot just 38 percent from the field. |

Thu Nov 25 2021 | 10:47 | Malcolm Brogdon Scores 28 Points In Overtime Loss |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon led the team with 28 points in Wednesday's overtime loss to the Lakers, shooting a good 5-for-10 from downtown but just 9-for-21 from the field overall. He had two assists with three turnovers in 48 minutes and registered seven rebounds, one steal and one block. This is Brogdon's best scoring effort in seven games. He's not been putting up a lot of shots and it's limited his offensive production. He'll now head into a pretty tough back-to-back set against Toronto and Milwaukee. The Bucks have limited point guards to 40.7 percent shooting this season, while the Raptors give up only 20.9 points per 48 minutes to the position. |

Tue Nov 16 2021 | 08:41 | Malcolm Brogdon Scores Game-High 22 Points In Loss |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon logged a game-high 22 points during a 92-84 loss to the New York Knicks on Monday. The 28-year-old went 9-for-20 from the field, including 2-for-7 from three-point range, and 2-for-3 from the free-throw line. The former rookie of the year also posted eight rebounds and seven assists across 37 minutes. Brogdon has had an excellent start to the young season, averaging 22.4 points, 6.8 assists, and 7.3 rebounds per game, all career-highs. The only categories lacking from the Virginia product are on the defensive side and his production on the boards makes him one of the better rebounding guards in the league. |

Sun Nov 14 2021 | 08:01 | Malcolm Brogdon Posts A Triple-Double Versus Philly |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon enjoyed a triple-double night against the Sixers on Saturday, scoring 12 points with 10 rebounds and 10 assists. He had a mediocre scoring night because of poor 4-for-13 shooting and Brogdon's line included three turnovers in 37 minutes as well. The 28-year-old had just dropped a season-high 30 points on Utah prior to Saturday night, so maybe he just needed to cool off a bit. The Pacers have looked great in recent outings with Brogdon leading the charge, and they'll head to New York now. Brogdon managed only 17 points against the Knicks earlier in the month and it is a bad matchup for him, as Tom Thibodeau's team has limited opposing point guards to 38.6 percent shooting this season. |

Fri Nov 12 2021 | 07:26 | Malcolm Brogdon Leads Pacers Past Jazz |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon scored a season-high 30 points in Thursday's 111-100 win over Utah, shooting 10-for-23 from the field and 2-for-7 from downtown with an 8-for-9 mark at the line. He grabbed nine rebounds in 37 minutes and dished out four assists with one steal and one turnover. Brogdon has now delivered back-to-back strong scoring performances with Caris LeVert (back) unavailable. The Pacers shooting guard is considered day-to-day, so he could be back at any given moment. Brogdon's usage will take a hit with LeVert back in the fold, but he'll still continue to do much of the heavy lifting on offense and actually can then focus more on playmaking. He's only had nine assists in total across the last two games. |

Thu Nov 11 2021 | 11:48 | Malcolm Brogdon Fills Up The Box Score In Return |
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon looked great in his return to the court Wednesday against the Nuggets. Despite his team's loss, Brogdon acquitted himself well, pouring in 25 points on 52.4 percent shooting from the field and 42.9 percent shooting from downtown. The former second-round pick also did a little bit of everything, chipping in five assists, three rebounds, three steals, and two blocks in 35 minutes. Brogdon showed no effects of the non-COVID-related illness that held him out of Sunday's game, so he is back to the must-start option he's been through the first few weeks of the season. |

Wed Nov 10 2021 | 19:57 | Malcolm Brogdon Suiting Up Wednesday |
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (illness), listed as questionable, will return to the action Wednesday against the Nuggets. It's nice to get the official word in on Brogdon well before tip-off. The Virginia product is averaging 22.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 7.0 assists per game while playing a career-high 36.8 minutes per contest. Fantasy managers should fire him up for a solid matchup with Denver, who has allowed the ninth-most FanDuel points per game to point guards. |

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Brogdon will remain sidelined while he deals with a non-COVID related illness. His absence will mean another start for T.J. McConnell who played well on Friday. Fantasy managers in deep leagues should give McConnell a look while Brogdon is out. Otherwise, he could have some low-end DFS appeal for Sunday's slate. |

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran guard appears to be dealing with a non-COVID related illness. He missed Friday's game as well, but at least this gives him more time to rest his lingering hamstring issue. Fantasy managers are likely going to have to wait until shootaround for more information. T.J. McConnell would have more streaming appeal and DFS value, assuming Brogdon sits out again on Sunday. |

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He is currently dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so this could come down to a game time decision. Brogdon returned on Wednesday after missing three games due to a hamstring issue. He played well in that contest, so hopefully Brogdon can get back out there soon. In the meantime, T.J. McConnell will see increased minutes and have some streaming appeal if Brogdon sits out on Friday. |

Brogdon has raised his game to start the young season, posting career-highs with 23.4 points per game, 7.0 rebounds, and 7.0 assists while shooting 96.2% from the free-throw line. |

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. He has missed each of the last three games after tweaking his hamstring. It's uncertain if the Pacers plan to limit Brogdon at all, so fantasy managers might have to check back for another update. T.J.

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The veteran guard is reportedly dealing with a strained hamstring, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. Fantasy managers should expect Brogdon to be sidelined for multiple games because of this injury. That means, T.J. McConnell could be an interesting addition in plenty of fantasy formats. He played extremely well last season whenever Brogdon was off the court. |

Sun Oct 24 2021 | 07:45 | Malcolm Brogdon Posts A Double-Double With Rebounds |
Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon notched a double-double with 18 points and a team-high 14 rebounds in Saturday's 102-91 overtime victory against Miami. This was a very slow-burning game with a lot of missed shots and Brogdon ended up going 0-for-7 from downtown and 5-for-19 from the field overall with an 8-for-8 record at the line. He also registered four assists with four turnovers and two blocks in 41 minutes. The Pacers had started the season with two very high-scoring games, so this was a big step back. However, Brogdon still managed to put together a good line, and he's averaging 24.7 points per game for the season now with 8.7 rebounds and 7.7 assists. He'll face his former side Milwaukee next. It's a tough matchup, but Brogdon carries a heavy load on offense in Indiana and should be able to have a productive night. |

Sat Oct 23 2021 | 09:33 | Malcolm Brogdon Delivers Well-Rounded Line |
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon stuffed the stat sheet in Friday's overtime loss to the Wizards. Brogdon scored 28 points with eight rebounds, eight assists, two triples, a pair of steals, and a block in 44 minutes. The 28-year-old has amassed an impressive 56 points and 19 assists through two games played. It's unclear if it will stick, but Brogdon has a monster usage rate of 35.6 percent, which would be well over his previous best mark of 26.4 percent. While that figure is likely to dip a bit, Brogdon still seems poised to challenge his career-highs in both points and assists this season. |

Mon May 24 2021 | 17:01 | Pacers still evaluating Bjorkgren before making decision |
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana Pacers president of basketball operations Kevin Pritchard intends to stand pat — for now. He'd rather not break up the big-man tandem of Myles Turner, the NBA's blocks champion, and two-time All-Star Domantas Sabonis. He hopes free agents Doug McDermott and NBA steals champ T.J. McConnell return. And he's not pulling the plug on coach Nate Bjorkgren. At least not yet. After missing the playoffs for the first time in six years and amid a tumultuous final month, Pritchard used a 45-minute, season-ending video call to explain why he's still evaluating the first-year coach's fate. “You don’t win 34 games with a decimated roster without doing some good things, too," Pritchard said. “But there are some things that we need to do better, he needs to do better. Right now, no decisions have been made. We’re not making a decision today We don’t make decisions in a vacuum, we take our time and to be honest with you, I’m being evaluated. I’m being evaluated every day." Pritchard's... [ More] |
