Fantasy Outlook
McConnell, who has established himself as one of the most reliable backup point guards in the NBA, turned in another steady season off the Indiana bench in 2024-25. The veteran guard averaged 17.9 minutes per night across 79 regular-season contests with 9.1 points, 4.4 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals on 51.9 percent shooting from the field, placing him just outside the top-200 for nine-category leagues on a per-game basis. The Pacers are looking at some drastic changes for 2025-26. Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) is fully expected to miss the entire campaign, and Myles Turner departed for Milwaukee. The Pacers were unable to make a splash in free agency and seem to be banking on internal improvement from players such as Andrew Nembhard and Bennedict Mathurin, both of whom are projected to start in the backcourt. That being said, it's fair to expect McConnell to be considerably more involved with Haliburton out of the equation. McConnell rarely takes three-pointers and is not a high-volume scorer, but he picks and chooses his spots, which results in a healthy field goal percentage. While not loaded with upside, McConnell could be a valuable source of dimes and steals, two categories that are hard to find late in drafts. The veteran is expected to miss the first month of the season due to a hamstring injury.Pacers Lineup
