Jarace Walker Opens Year 3 With Pacers, Clean Injury Report Before 2026-27 Tips Off
newsroom · 51 min agoJarace Walker heads into his third NBA season with the Indiana Pacers, listed at forward and wearing No. 5. He's not on the injury report right now, and last season's numbers give the clearest picture of what he brings before the 2026-27 opener arrives.
Where Walker Fits on the Roster
Jarace Walker is entering his third NBA season with the Indiana Pacers. He's listed at forward, wears No. 5, and stands 6-7, 235 pounds. Walker is 23 years old and came into the league out of Houston. The 2026-27 season is now the current campaign for Indiana, and Walker's most recent full body of work comes from 2025-26, his time with the team last season. There's no game action yet to report for the new season, so his track record from a year ago is the best guide to his role. He played real minutes for Indiana last season and profiles as a frontcourt piece who can contribute across multiple stat categories.
Last Season by the Numbers
In 2025-26, Walker appeared in 76 games for Indiana, a full season's worth of action. He averaged 25.7 minutes, 11.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 0.8 steals, 0.3 blocks and 1.8 turnovers per game. His shooting split was 41.9 percent from the field, 37.4 percent from three-point range, and 74.9 percent from the foul line. That three-point number stands out for a forward his size, and it points to a floor-spacing element in his game alongside the rebounding and passing numbers. Those are the figures Pacers fans should point to heading into the new season, since nothing from 2026-27 has been logged yet.
Efficiency and Usage Last Season
Beyond the raw counting stats, Walker posted a true shooting percentage of 54.3 last season, with a usage rate of 20.0 percent. That usage number shows he was a real part of Indiana's offensive rotation last season, not a fringe piece. His plus-minus for 2025-26 came in at minus-6.0. Combined with the shooting splits, the efficiency numbers describe a player who took a meaningful share of possessions while shooting a respectable percentage from three. All of these figures are from last season, 2025-26, and represent the most recent complete data point available for Walker before the current 2026-27 season gets underway.
Injury Report Update
As of now, Jarace Walker is not on the injury report. There's no injury history logged for him either. For a player heading into a new season, a clean bill of health is the simplest and most important update available. There's nothing to track on the medical side right now, which means the only open questions about Walker heading into 2026-27 are about performance, not availability. Pacers fans checking in on his status ahead of the season opener can take this as a straightforward, uncomplicated update: healthy, on the roster, and ready to be part of Indiana's plans once games begin.
What's Next for Walker and the Pacers
With no recent game logs yet for 2026-27, the season opener is still ahead for Walker and the Pacers. There are no rumors or roster moves tied to him to report at this time. What's clear is his standing: third-year forward, No. 5, healthy, and coming off a 76-game season in which he played a real role in Indiana's rotation. Once the 2026-27 season begins, his production last season, 11.6 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, will be the baseline fans and the front office measure him against as he looks to build on that showing.
