The Pacers will be without 27-year old point guard Travis Diener for the next 4-6 weeks due to surgery on his left big toe. Diener has not played this season yet due to the toe. He played in 55 games (0 starts) last season for the Pacers and he averaged 3.7 points, 1.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. The Pacers won’t miss Diener too much while he’s out but they will be a better team when he comes back.
