Bleacher Report Draft Expert Jonathan Wasserman's Scouting Report

Player: Bennedict Mathurin

Position: SG/SF

Height: 6'5"

Pro Comparison: Jason Richardson

Scouting Report: Explosiveness and shot-making are Mathurin's NBA moneymakers. He's still working on becoming a more efficient shot-creator, but he should immediately be able to score by drilling jumpers and picking up easy transition buckets.
