Jeff Foster, the Indiana Pacers center, will likely make his season debut on Tuesday, after spending the first 17 games recovering from preseason hip surgery.
Foster, who ran wind sprints after practice, is just hoping to be activated.
"Their situations were different," Foster said of Miller and Johnson. "They broke their hand and were running sprints the next day. I've been running sprints for a week.
"I would like to play 20 minutes. Whether I can, that's to be seen."
