The Pacers got bad news before the G4 of the NBA Playoff Eastern Conference Finals, and the Savior was injured in the first game

The Pacers took a 2-1 lead in the series against the Knicks in the NBA Playoff Eastern Conference Championship, but bad news came out before the start of the fourth game. The main striker Aaron Nesmith in the team suffered a sprained ankle, and it is still uncertain whether he can play in the next game.

Nesmith (middle) has an ankle sprain, and G4 may not know whether he can play before the game.

Nesmith twisted his ankle in the third quarter of the third game. He left the field for treatment with someone else's help, but returned to the game in the final quarter and finished the rest of the time. Pacers head coach Carlisle revealed in an interview that after Nesmith got up on the 27th, he felt ankle soreness as expected. He is currently uncertain whether he can play in the fourth game. He is likely to make a decision until before the game.

As the Pacers' main forward, Nesmith played 13 games in the playoffs, all of which were the first to play, and could score an average of 15.1 points and 6.2 rebounds. The overall shooting percentage was 52%, and the three-point shooting percentage was excellent at 54%.

It is worth mentioning that in the fourth quarter of Game 1 of the NBA Playoff Eastern Conference Championship, Nesmith scored 6 three-pointers by one, not only tying the league record, but also being one of the key figures that the Pacers can complete a shocking reversal.
