According to Mark Montieth of the Indianapolis Star the Pacers will again be without the services of starting point guard Jamaal Tinsley who will be sitting out his second consecutive game with a sprained right ankle.  Tinsley had been a vital component to the Pacers lineup with the team plagued by injuries and suspensions.

Head Coach Rick Carlisle said Tinsley was "questionable at best" for Saturday's game against Sacramento at Conseco Fieldhouse.
