Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Scores 22 in starting role
Mathurin chipped in 22 points (6-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 35 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 132-130 overtime win over the Timberwolves.
With Myles Turner (hip), Pascal Siakam (personal), Aaron Nesmith (ankle) and Tyrese Haliburton (back) all sidelined, Mathurin returned to the starting lineup for the first time since March 10 and only the second time since the All-Star break. Mathurin is one of the most capable second-unit scorers in the league, but his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction of late. He's averaging a mere 12.7 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game since the break. For the sake of comparison, he's averaging 16.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists per contest when deployed in a starting role.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Won't start Tuesday
Mathurin will come off the bench during Tuesday's game against the Bucks, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
The 22-year-old swingman will come off the bench due to Tyrese Haliburton (hip) returning to game action. Mathurin has appeared in two consecutive contests (one start) following a four-game absence due to a left wrist sprain, accumulating 35 points, 10 rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 63 total minutes.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Rough shooting performance
Mathurin contributed five points (2-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and three assists across 23 minutes during Monday's 121-103 loss to the Bulls.
Mathurin struggled from the field Monday after erupting for 30 points Saturday against the Hawks. The 22-year-old forward connected on only two of his nine field-goal attempts against Chicago, finishing with five points, far lower than his 16.2 points per game average. However, as long as Tyrese Haliburton (hip) remains out, Mathurin should remain in the starting lineup and handle increased usage.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Starting Monday vs. Chicago
Mathurin is in the Pacers' starting lineup against the Bulls on Monday, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Mathurin will make his first start since Feb. 8 due to the absence of Tyrese Haliburton (hip). Mathurin returned Saturday from a four-game absence due to a left wrist sprain and finished with 30 points, eight rebounds, five assists and two steals over 40 minutes.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Pours in 30 in return
Mathurin recorded 30 points (9-20 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 8-10 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and two steals in 40 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 120-118 loss to Atlanta.
The third-year wing led the Pacers in scoring on the night and nearly dragged them to a comeback win after they found themselves staring at a 20-point deficit heading into the second quarter. Mathurin has missed the previous four games due to a wrist issue, but he looked 100 percent healthy upon his return. The 30 points represented his best scoring effort since he erupted for 38 against the Knicks on Nov. 10.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Upgraded to available
Mathurin (wrist) is available for Saturday's game against the Hawks, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Head coach Rick Carlisle "doesn't know for sure" if there will be a restriction on Mathurin's minutes, but the forward will suit up following a four-game absence. Mathurin is averaging 15.2 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game in 11 outings off the bench this season.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Questionable to play Saturday
Mathurin (wrist) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Atlanta.
Mathurin is in jeopardy of missing his fourth consecutive contest Saturday due to a left wrist sprain. With Tyrese Haliburton (hip) also having been deemed questionable, Aaron Nesmith (hip), Ben Sheppard and T.J. McConnell are all candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Out vs. Atlanta
Mathurin (wrist) is out for Thursday's game against the Hawks, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
The Pacers will be shorthanded in terms of scoring weapons Thursday since they'll be missing both Mathurin and Tyrese Haliburton (hip). This will be Mathurin's fourth straight absence due to a left wrist sprain, and it's unclear if he'll be ready to return for a rematch against the Hawks on Saturday.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Questionable for Thursday
Mathurin (wrist) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Hawks, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Mathurin is dealing with a left wrist sprain that has sidelined him for the last three games. A decision on his status will probably be made closer to Thursday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff. If he can't go, expect Aaron Nesmith, Andrew Nembhard and Ben Sheppard to see more minutes to compensate for the loss of Mathurin, particularly on the offensive end of the court.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Ruled out against Houston
Mathurin (wrist) won't play in Tuesday's game versus the Rockets, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Mathurin will miss his third straight contest Tuesday after being downgraded from doubtful to out due to a sprained left wrist. Mathurin's next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Atlanta.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Doubtful for Tuesday
Mathurin is doubtful for Tuesday's game against Houston due to a sprained left wrist.
Head coach Rick Carlisle said before Sunday's win over Chicago that Mathurin is day-to-day with the injury, but the third-year swingman is unlikely to conclude a two-game absence against the Rockets. Mathurin's eventual return would likely translate to fewer minutes for Aaron Nesmith, Andrew Nembhard and Ben Sheppard, but they should each hang onto larger roles for at least one more outing.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Considered day-to-day
Head coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Mathurin (wrist) can be considered day-to-day moving forward, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.
Mathurin will miss his second straight game Sunday against the Bulls due to what the Pacers are labeling as a sprained left wrist, though Carlisle acknowledged that the third-year wing is also tending to various ailments. The wrist nor any other of Mathurin's health concerns are considered overly significant, however, and Carlisle isn't ruling Mathurin out from making a potential return for Tuesday's game against the Rockets. The third-year pro has come off the bench in each of his last six appearances, during which he has averaged 14.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 25.3 minutes per contest.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Set for spell on sidelines
Mathurin (wrist) will miss "a couple of games at least," head coach Rick Carlisle told Jeremiah Johnson of FanDuel Sports Network Indiana.
Mathurin is dealing with a wrist injury and is also banged up with multiple issues, so the Pacers will give him enough time to recover. It's uncertain when he'll return to the court, though based on Carlisle's words, Mathurin should be out for at least the Pacers' next two or three games.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Shines off bench in victory
Mathurin logged 16 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 24 minutes during Thursday's 127-113 victory over the Grizzlies.
Mathurin once again provided a lift for Indiana off the bench Thursday, leading all second-unit players in scoring to go along with a team-high-tying steals mark over a bench-leading minutes total. Mathurin has recorded a pair of steals in 10 contests this year while tallying 15 or more points in five straight outings.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Nears 30 points off bench in OT win
Mathurin notched 28 points (11-19 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and four assists over 33 minutes in Wednesday's 134-130 overtime win over Washington.
Mathurin shined off the Pacers bench in Wednesday's high-scoring overtime battle, finding success offensively while finishing second on the team in scoring and two points short of the 30-point mark. Mathurin has been a key offensive contribute for Indiana as of late, posting his sixth outing of the season with 25 or more points and his second such performance coming off the bench.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Slides to bench Tuesday
Mathurin will come off the bench in Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Alex Golden of the 'Setting the Pace' podcast reports.
Aaron Nesmith will supplant Mathurin in the starting five Tuesday. The 22-year-old hasn't joined the second unit since Oct. 30, and over his last 10 outings, he has averaged 15.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers across 26.4 minutes per game. Mathurin has shot 51.8 percent from the field and 31.8 percent from three-point range in that 10-game span.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Makes up for early accident
Mathurin racked up 25 points (8-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 8-12 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes during Thursday's 119-112 win over the Clippers.
Early on, it looked like Mathurin might end up being the goat in an Indiana loss -- he accidentally hit Myles Turner (concussion) in the face while going for a rebound just six minutes into the game, and the center never returned to the court. In part because of that turmoil, the Pacers found themselves staring at a 42-22 deficit after the first frame, but Mathurin stepped up in a big way and helped fuel a big comeback. It was the third-year guard's best scoring effort since he hung 25 on the Bucks on New Year's Eve and just the second time he's produced 20 or more points in his last seven appearances, a stretch in which he's failed to play 30 minutes in any contest. The slight workload decline has led to Mathurin averaging 15.4 points, 4.1 boards, 1.1 assists and 1.1 threes in 25.0 minutes despite shooting 54.8 percent from the floor.

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Scores 17 points in return
Mathurin amassed 17 points (6-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds and one block over 25 minutes during Saturday's 132-127 win over the Hawks.
Mathurin returned to the lineup after missing the previous game due to an illness, helping the Pacers to a hard-fought victory over the struggling Hawks. Although it's been an improved season for Mathurin, he continues to offer very little to the team outside of points. Through 45 games, he is averaging 16.4 points and 5.8 rebounds in 32.0 minutes per contest.
