Hibbert also grabbed 14 rebounds and blocked five shots. | Insight: Basically, this is what Hibbert has been doing all season -- shooting poorly while rebounding and blocking shots well.

If you own the Pacers center, it is strictly for his blocks and rebounds. It doesn't appear like there will be any offensive turnaround this season for him, Tuesday's game aside. | | |

Description: Pacers center Roy Hibbert (back) will play Saturday against Charlotte. SOURCE: Mark Montieth, Pacers.com | Insight: Hibbert left Thursday's game versus New York twice with back spasms but he's feeling better.

Description: Pacers center Roy Hibbert left Thursday's game in the first half due to back spasms but later returned in the third quarter. SOURCE: Mike Wells, Indianapolis Star | Insight: Hibbert's scoring is down 3.1 ppg due to a decline in shooting percentage from .497 last season to .401. Hibbert is also shooting worse from the free-throw line and taking 1.5 fewer foul shots per game. The center is still worth owning because he is third in the NBA with 2.7 blocks and 22nd with 8.4 rebounds per game but there's no denying he's been a disappointment. | | |

Description: Pacers center Roy Hibbert was unable to build off Saturday's 20-point, 15-rebound, 5-block effort in Tuesday's game against the Heat. He shot 3-of-12 from the field for six points and failed to block a shot but did have 14 rebounds. | Insight: Hibbert has struggled with his shooting all season but made 50 percent or better in his first three games of January. Since Hibbert is providing 2.7 blocks and 8.4 rebounds per game, fantasy owners can afford to hold onto him and hope he reverts to 2011-12 form (.497 FG%). | | |

Description: Pacers center Roy Hibbert is probable for Tuesday's game against Milwaukee. Hibbert injured his thigh Saturday in a game against the Pistons. | Insight: Hibbert's field goal percentage is way down, to 38.9 percent, and he has not been producing up to expectations across the board this season (9.7 ppg vs. 12.8 last season, 8.4 rpg vs. 8.8), but the center position isn't deep and fantasy owners will need to hope he turns it around soon. | | |

Description: Pacers coach Frank Vogel is hoping Roy Hibbert will be able to play Tuesday against Milwaukee. Hibbert injured his thigh Saturday in a game against the Pistons. | Insight: Hibbert has been a bust this season (9.7 ppg compared to 12.8 last season) but the talent pool at center isn't especially deep so he's still worth keeping an eye on. | | |
