    Pacers forward Tyler Hansbrough may be falling behind for the second straight season.

    Hansbrough practiced during the first week of training camp, but was limited and didn't participate in five-on-five scrimmages.

    Indiana coach Jim O'Brien said Hansbrough falls further behind the longer he's held out of scrimmages.

    "He was behind coming in because he didn't have a training camp last year, then he missed most of the season, and the more times he misses five-on-five, the further behind he gets," O'Brien said.

    "There's no way of sugar-coating it. He'll start to catch up once he's able to go in every drill we do."

    A shin injury sidelined Hansbrough in training camp last year and he was limited to just 29 games last season because of vertigo.
