Indiana Pacers guard Rodney Stuckey did not play in Saturday night's contest versus the Chicago Bulls due to a right hamstring strain.

Stuckey suffered the injury in the first quarter of Friday night's matchup against the Brooklyn Nets and will undergo an MRI on Monday, head coach Nate McMillan told Nate Taylor of the Indianapolis Star.

The 30-year-old veteran was troubled with injuries in 2015-16, missing a total of 24 games last season.

Stuckey is averaging four points and two rebounds this season while shooting 42.9 percent from the field.

Swingman C.J. Miles should see a spike in his minutes with Stuckey out for the foreseeable future.
