T.J. Warren Ruled Out For Thursday’s Contest
4 years agoIndiana Pacers small forward T.J. Warren (foot) will miss Thursday's game against the Cavaliers due to a sore left foot, marking his first absence of the year. The injury appears to be significant enough that the Pacers ruled him out more than 24 hours before tip-off. Justin Holiday is the likeliest candidate to enter the starting five in Warren's absence and could see some DFS intrigue as a potential punt play with extended minutes. Warren has carried over his offensive aggressiveness from the bubble into the new year, albeit not at the same level, having averaged 15.5 PPG through his first four contests. His next chance to get back on the floor comes Saturday versus the Knicks.
