Quenton Jackson Ruled Out Versus Denver with a Right Hamstring Strain
Indiana Pacers guard Quenton Jackson (right hamstring strain) has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets. The 27-year-old had been one of the few bright spots in Indiana's injury-riddled backcourt, but this setback is another big blow for a team already missing multiple key guards. Jackson averaged 11.8 points, 3.6 assists, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.0 steal per game while shooting 54.1% from the field and 50% from three, showing flashes of real offensive upside and poise as a temporary floor general. His absence leaves Ben Sheppard and RayJ Dennis to handle the bulk of playmaking duties, though both have struggled with consistency. The silver lining is that Andrew Nembhard (shoulder) appears close to returning, which should help stabilize the rotation. For fantasy managers, Jackson can be dropped in most formats for now but remains a name to watch once he's healthy again.
