There has been a lot of talk about Bennedict Mathurin's future with the Indiana Pacers since the team chose not to give him a rookie-scale contract extension in the summer. The Canadian native is set to hit restricted free agency next season, but according to ClutchPoints' Brett Siegel, he could be on the move before then.
"They made it abundantly clear that Bennedict Mathurin is available in trade talks right now. They're going to utilize him to likely make a sizable upgrade in their frontcourt before the trade deadline because they don't want to pay Mathurin a nine-figure deal," Siegel said.
