Indiana Pacers point guard George Hill will be missing again on Tuesday night for the trip to Detroit to face the Pistons.
The 27-year-old will sit out for the second consecutive game with a sore hip, according to the Indy Star.
Coach Frank Vogel is expected to field summer recruit CJ Watson in his place, after he arrived from the Brooklyn Nets in the off-season.
Watson had seven points on 2-of-8 shooting with four assists in his last start, and will be expected to continue to deputise in Hill's absence.
