Furphy has been sidelined for the last month while recovering from an ankle injury, but he is set to make his return to the lineup on Wednesday. He won't play a huge role for the Pacers, but his presence still will likely lead to less work for Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Garrison Mathews moving forward.

Johnny Furphy (ankle) is still out for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls.

Furphy is going to be sidelined again on Saturday. He seems to be nearing a return from his ankle injury, however, and it seems likely to come sometime within the next week or two. Jeremiah Robinson-Earl will continue to see more work for however long Furphy remains out.

Johnny Furphy is expected to miss at least the next five games for the Pacers, according to Alex Golden of the 'Setting the Pace' podcast.

Head coach Rick Carlisle confirmed that Furphy is dealing with what appears to be a relatively severe ankle sprain. He will not travel with the team on their upcoming four-game road trip, and his absence could extend beyond that. Cody Martin and Ben Sheppard figure to split most of Furphy's minutes while he is sidelined.

Johnny Furphy has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nets.

Johnny Furphy is doubtful to return to Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks due to a left ankle sprain.
