Rookie Andrew Nembhard put together a night against Stephen Curry and the Warriors on Monday that he won’t ever forget. In leading Indiana, which was playing without Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner, to a 112-104 victory, Nembhard dropped 31 points, 13 assists and eight rebounds on five 3-pointers in 41 minutes, all of which go down as early career highs. The guy can play. He has scored in double figures in four of his past five games. He’s shooting better than 40 percent from 3 for the season. He’s solid with the ball and a fantastic passer. Rick Carlisle doesn’t just hand out 25 minutes a game to rookies, and Nembhard, with TJ McConnell out recently and Haliburton the last two, has logged 35-plus in the last three. Still, this was a night he will have a hard time replicating any time soon, if ever.
