As it stands, it seems increasingly likely that the Indiana Pacers will let Bennedict Mathurin hit restricted free agency next summer, and it is fair to assume that he could end up with a team like the Washington Wizards, Charlotte Hornets, or Brooklyn Nets and become their top scoring option.
In a recent episode of his podcast, The Ringer's Zach Lowe and The Athletic's Fred Katz spoke about Mathurin's outlook ahead of a contract year. Not only did they predict that the Canadian native will not get the rookie-scale contract extension he is currently eligible for, but they spoke about a few teams that either have the cap space or could create the cap space to sign Mathurin to a massive deal next year and give him a major role.
