The Indiana Pacers are currently on the rise as they are on a three-game winning streak and look to continue their run tonight against the Detroit Pistons. This game marks the end of Indiana’s four-game homestand as they prepare for a four-game road trip.

Today’s matchup against Detroit is the second of the season for the Pacers. The two teams met in the first game of the regular season, which ended in a 115-109 win for the Pacers. Since then, the Pistons’ season hasn’t been particularly successful, as they currently boast a record of 8-12.

Additionally, tonight marks Indiana’s final home game in the NBA Cup Tournament this season. So far the tournament is 0-2. The Pistons, on the other hand, are 2-0.

Here is the full injury report for tonight’s NBA Cup match between the Pacers and Pistons.

There are no surprises on Indiana’s injury report. However, Aaron Nesmith And Andrew Nembhardwho have several weeks each in November, should return to court soon. In their absence, the Pacers have relied more heavily on Bennedict Mathurin and Quenton Jackson. Once Nembhard and Nesmith return, Mathurin and/or Jackson will likely play a smaller role in the rotation.

Cade Cunningham has been out of action for Detroit for over a week with a hip injury. In the three games they have played without him, the Pistons are 1-2. Although he is listed as questionable, the former No. 1 draft pick took part in the Pistons’ shootaround on Friday, making it more likely he will play against the Pacers.

Cunningham is in the midst of a career year. In 17 games, he averaged 23.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 8.9 assists. Additionally, he shoots 43.8% from the field and 35.8% from distance.

Tobias Harriswho rejoined the Pistons in the offseason, missed the team’s final game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Like Cunningham, Harris participated in Friday’s shooting despite being listed as questionable.

The Pistons will also continue to have to make do without a rookie forward Bobi Klintman, who has not yet made his NBA debut. Klintman is dealing with a calf injury and has no official timetable for his return to the court.
