Recently, ESPN's Brian Windhorst suggested that the Indiana Pacers may have to choose between Andrew Nembhard and Bennedict Mathurin, given their financial situation. Nembhard is already extended, which spells trouble for Mathurin, whose future in Indiana is still up in the air (h/t Brian Windhorst of ESPN).
"Interesting thing is, they have extended [Nembhard] and they haven't extended Mathurin...they got them both on the same night, they're both important players for their two playoff runs, but it's possible they may have to pick between the two of them just because of their financial realities, and like I said, they've already extended Nembhard," Windhorst said.
