The Pacers exercised Mathurin's fourth-year team option for the 2025-26 season Friday, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Mathurin is scheduled to earn $9.19 million in 2025-26, the final season of his rookie contract. The Arizona product took a step back in his second NBA season in 2023-24, averaging 14.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 26.1 minutes per game in 59 outings before having his campaign cut short due to shoulder surgery. Now healthy, Mathurin is expected to play a significant role off the bench in Year 3 as Indiana's sixth man.
