Fantasy Impact: Sheppard has been a regular starter for the Pacers this season, and with him out, that could open up more work for T.J. McConnell.

T.J. McConnell scored 14 points (7-10 FG) with a rebound, six assists, three steals, and a block in the Pacers' 135-120 loss to the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact: McConnell had himself a vintage T.J. McConnell game, contributing on both sides of the ball and scoring exclusively inside the arc. He can put up a decent game in limited minutes. Despite a down performance against Cleveland, he's a decent start in fantasy leagues most nights thanks to his playmaking ability.
