Pacers' Al Jefferson: Returns to bench role Wednesday

Jefferson will return to the bench for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Bob Rathbun of Fox Sports Southeast reports.

Analysis:

Jefferson drew the spot start on Monday with Myles Turner sitting out with an ankle injury, but posted just four points (2-4 FG), six rebounds and two assists over 21 minutes. With Turner back in the starting lineup, Jefferson will return to the bench and will likely see minutes closer to his season average of 14.7 per game, which severely restricts his fantasy potential.
