Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Posts 20-10 double-double in loss
Mathurin totaled 23 points (7-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 8-9 FT), 12 rebounds and one steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 94-90 loss to the Magic.
Mathurin dominated the paint and provided a lift to Indiana offensively in Wednesday's narrow defeat, leading all players in rebounds while concluding second on the team in scoring and as the lone player with a double-double. Mathurin set a new season high in rebounds, and he has reached double figures in three outings this year. He has now tallied at least 20 points in four straight contests.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Posts career-high 38 points
Mathurin ended with 38 points (13-18 FG, 7-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one block over 41 minutes during Sunday's 132-121 win over the Knicks.
Mathurin produced a career-best mark of 38 points, becoming the youngest Pacer ever to score over 35 points with at least seven three-pointers in a single game. With Aaron Nesmith (ankle) sidelined until at least December, Mathurin could continue to thrive in the starting lineup alongside Tyrese Haliburton with the duo combining to score 73 points in Sunday's win.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Continues to produce as starter
Mathurin logged 22 points (8-16 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Friday's 103-83 loss to the Hornets.
Mathurin got promoted to the starting lineup four games ago following his 30-point performance in the win over the Celtics on Oct. 30, and he's been outstanding while handling more responsibility on offense. Mathurin is averaging 19.3 points per game while shooting 49 percent from the field as a starter, and he's expected to remain in that role until Aaron Nesmith (ankle) is ready to return.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Shines from line in double-double
Mathurin ended Wednesday's 118-111 win over Orlando with 20 points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 13-14 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 34 minutes.
Mathurin helped lead the way for Indiana in a winning effort, leading all players in Wednesday's contest in free-throws made while pacing the team in points and rebounds in a double-double performance. Mathurin set a season high in free throws, the second time he has surpassed the double-digit mark from the line. Mathurin has recorded a double-double in two outings this year, and he has notched at least 15 points in four straight contests.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Starts again Monday
Mathurin dropped 16 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and a steal across 32 minutes in Monday's 134-127 win over the Mavericks.
Monday's game also marked Mathurin's second consecutive start, and he will likely remain in the starting lineup until Aaron Nesmith (ankle) returns. In his last three games, Mathurin has averaged 21.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 0.3 steals over 35.7 minutes, so it is possible his offensive production will increase in extended minutes.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Getting starting nod

Mathurin will replace Andrew Nembhard (knee) in the starting five Friday. Mathurin is coming off a 30-point performance in which he played 43 minutes in an overtime win over the Celtics.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Team-high 30 points in OT win
Mathurin tallied 30 points (9-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 10-11 FT), 11 rebounds and four assists over 42 minutes during Wednesday's 135-132 overtime win over Boston.
Mathurin has logged just five points in each of his last two outings, but he was much more impactful during Wednesday's Eastern Conference Finals rematch, finishing the game as the Pacers' leading scorer and with the second-most points for the game behind Jayson Tatum (37). Mathurin got the start in the second half for Andrew Nembhard, and the former took advantage of the opportunity as he registered his fourth career double-double and his first since Feb. 25 of the 2023-24 regular season. Mathurin has come off the bench during the Pacers' first five games of the regular season, but more outings like Wednesday's could earn him a spot in the starting lineup alongside Tyrese Haliburton and Pascal Siakam.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Scores 20 points off bench
Mathurin finished Friday's 123-98 loss to New York with 20 points (8-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 24 minutes.
Mathurin gave the Pacers a much-needed offensive boost off the bench, leading the team in scoring in a blowout 25-point loss against New York. It's only been two games, but it's clear the shoulder issues that limited Mathurin to just 59 regular-season appearances in 2023-24 are a thing of the past. He's scored 19 points in his first two outings of the new campaign and should continue to play a prominent role offensively despite his bench status, meaning he's also a player worth targeting in most fantasy formats.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Fourth-year option exercised
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.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Moves back to bench role
Mathurin is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason matchup against the Hornets.
Mathurin is expected to open the 2024-25 regular season as a bench option, and given that the Pacers are using what looks like their most likely starting unit for Opening Night, it makes sense to see him retreat to the bench. Mathurin should see regular minutes in this contest, though.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Will start Monday
Mathurin will start Monday's preseason game against the Grizzlies.
With Tyrese Haliburton and T.J. McConnell resting, Andrew Nembhard will shift to point guard, while Mathurin enters the starting lineup at shooting guard. Last Thursday, Mathurin exploded for 25 points (8-12 FG) in 19 minutes off the bench during a win over the Cavaliers.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Explodes for 25 points
Mathurin posted 25 points (8-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and an assist across 19 minutes off the bench in Thursday's 129-117 preseason win over the Cavaliers.
Mathurin was one of the standout performers of Thursday's slate across The Association, and it seems the former Arizona forward is approaching the 2024-25 campaign with a chip on his shoulder following the injury woes that limited him to just 59 regular-season appearances last season. Mathurin averaged 14.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 26.1 minutes in those 59 contests, and he could be a solid weapon off the bench for the Pacers. Operating with the second unit might increase Mathurin's usage and make him a reliable fantasy asset.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Says he's 100 percent
Mathurin (shoulder) said Monday that he will be a full go for training camp this week, Tony East of SI.com reports.
Mathurin said he's been 100 percent for a month and a half, so he should be able to hit the ground running during the preseason. His sophomore season was abruptly ended due to a torn labrum in his right shoulder that required surgery, but the Pacers will be thrilled to see him ready to roll for the upcoming season. In 59 regular-season contests in 2023-24, Mathurin averaged 14.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 26.1 minutes.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Progressing well after surgery
Coach Rick Carlisle said Tuesday that Mathurin (shoulder) is way ahead of schedule on his post-surgery recovery, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Mathurin's productive sophomore season was cut short due to a torn labrum in his right shoulder. The 21-year-old averaged 14.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 26.1 minutes across 59 games. This progress bodes well for the Pacers and Mathurin, as he's on track to make a full recovery before the start of the 2024-25 season.
