Stuckey (ankle) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Celtics.

Analysis:

Stuckey initially sprained his right ankle during Monday's game against the Magic but played through the pain for a total of 18 minutes. The situation has obviously worsened since then, however, as the Pacers will err on the side of caution this time around by allowing guys like C.J. Miles and Chase Budinger to step up in place of Stuckey. The next opportunity for Stuckey's return will be against the Timberwolves on Friday.
