The 2025-26 NBA season has gone completely differently for the Indiana Pacers and Toronto Raptors to this point.
While Indiana is 1-11 and is on a six-game losing streak, the Raptors are 7-5 and have won six of their last seven games. Toronto also owns the No. 7 seed in the East.
The Raptors won their season series against the Pacers last season, 2-1. So they will look to continue their winning ways as they head to Indiana in their first battle of the regular season at 7 p.m. ET on Saturday.
Here is the full injury report for the Pacers and Raptors ahead of Saturday's game.
11/15 Pacers injury report vs. Raptors

- Quenton Jackson (hamstring) - OUT
- Kam Jones (back) - OUT
- Bennedict Mathurin (toe) - OUT

Aaron Nesmith suffered a knee injury during the Pacers' loss to the Phoenix Suns on Thursday. The Vanderbilt alum has officially been diagnosed with a knee sprain, and he will miss Saturday's game against Toronto.
There is no official word on the severity of Nesmith's injury or how much time he is expected to miss. However, after the loss to Phoenix, head coach Rick Carlisle said that the Pacers believe they "may have dodged a bullet."
Rick Carlisle on Aaron Nesmith’s injury:

“We’re hoping that Aaron’s situation is not very serious. At this point, it looks like we may have dodged a bullet … in terms of something that is very serious but he’ll miss some time.” pic.twitter.com/29p7qCPdoS
In Nesmith's absence, the Pacers will likely continue to rely more heavily on players like Ben Sheppard and Jarace Walker.
