Aaron Nesmith injury update: Will Pacers X-factor miss Game 4 Tuesday vs. Knicks?

Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals after he was injured during Game 3 against the New York Knicks.

Nesmith woke up Monday with a sore right ankle, head coach Rick Carlisle told reporters. He was listed as questionable on the NBA's injury report with a right ankle sprain.

The injury occurred in the third quarter of Sunday's home loss to New York. With just over six minutes left in the quarter, Nesmith was attempting a pass as he was driving down the baseline, and his foot landed awkwardly on Knicks guard Jalen Brunson.
