## NBA Schedule- Hornets @ Pacers on Wednesday, Apr 02, 2025 at 04:00 PM PDTIndiana Pacers center Myles Turner has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday’s home game against the Charlotte Hornets after missing Monday’s victory over the Sacramento Kings due to illness. Turner, the Pacers’ all-time leading rebounder, is averaging 15.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks per game this season. In Turner’s absence on Monday, Thomas Bryant started at center, contributing seven points and seven rebounds in nearly 22 minutes. Bench players Obi Toppin and Jarace Walker also stepped up, combining for eight three-pointers. Guard Bennedict Mathurin, dealing with left calf soreness, has also been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday’s game. Mathurin is third on the team with 16.1 points and 5.4 rebounds per game. The Hornets will be without LaMelo Ball, Tre Mann, Brandon Miller, and Grant Williams for Wednesday’s matchup. The Pacers, currently holding the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference, have won three of their last five games and will aim to strengthen their position with a win over the Hornets. Turner’s potential return would bolster the Pacers’ defense and interior presence as they approach the playoffs. Fans and analysts will be watching closely for updates on his and Mathurin’s statuses leading up to the Game.
