The Indiana Pacers' backup point guard situation was a major problem that only got worse. However, they have an immediate solution that could keep things afloat for a while: rely on Ben Sheppard as a backup point guard behind Andrew Nembhard.
This might not be ideal, but Indiana is strapped for options.
With Tyrese Haliburton out for the year due to an Achilles injury, the Pacers have a big point guard problem on their hands. They are going to utilize Nembhard as their starting point guard, but their depth behind him is bleak.
This was the case even heading into the preseason, but the situation leaves even more to be desired now.
