Indiana's Malcolm Brogdon (hip) ruled out on Friday, Edmond Sumner to start
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hip) will not play in Friday's contest against the Charlotte Hornets.
What It Means:
Brogdon will not be active after Indiana's shooting guard was scratched with right hip soreness. Expect Edmond Sumner and T.J. McConnell to play increased roles in an uptempo matchup against a Hornets' unit playing with a 100.0 pace.
According to Rotogrinders' Court IQ in 160.3 minutes this season with Indiana's current inactives, Sumner is averaging 0.82 FanDuel points while McConnell's mark stands at 1.17 FanDuel points in a 302.1 minute sample size.
