Ian Mahinmi plans to play for Pacers on Thursday

Indiana Pacers center Ian Mahinmi (back) plans to play against the Toronto Raptors on Thursday.

What It Means:

Mahinmi's status isn't set in stone, but it's safe to expect him to be on the floor against the Raptors for Game 3 after leaving Game 2 with a back injury. While Myles Turner, Jordan Hill and Lavoy Allen all stood to see a bump in minutes if Mahinmi sat, it looks like they'll all carry their normal fantasy value.

Mahinmi had a very productive season for Indiana, checking in 34th with a 5.2 nERD. He averaged 9.3 points, 7.1 boards, 1.5 assists and 1.1 blocks per game -- all of which are career highs. His 58.9 Effective Field Goal Percentage is a career-best mark for any season in which he played at least 30 games.
