Al Jefferson: Question for Saturday’s playoff opener

Jefferson has been sidelined for Indiana’s last eight games due to complications
from a sprained left ankle. Although the big man is thought to be edging closer
to his return, it remains to be seen whether he’ll finally be available again
Saturday. While Jefferson’s status will have to be monitored in advance of
tipoff, Kevin Seraphin figures to remain a part of the Pacers’ rotation if
Jefferson is unable to play.
