Head coach Rick Carlisle said he believes that Mathurin (thumb) will be able to return at some point during their upcoming five-game road trip, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
According to Tony East of Forbes.com, Mathurin was able to get through a workout with Carlisle Thursday, and he plans to go through another workout Friday afternoon. The Pacers' upcoming road trip runs from Jan. 17-26, but Indiana will likely want Mathurin to get through a full practice before he's cleared to return, so it seems unlikely he'll play Saturday in Detroit. He's getting close, though.

Mathurin is out for Wednesday's game against Toronto with a right thumb sprain.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Rick Carlisle said back on Jan. 4 that Mathurin would be out "a while," and there's been no update from the Pacers since then regarding the swingman's return timeline. It's possible Mathurin is being evaluated on a week-to-week basis, so he can be deemed doubtful to play Friday against the Pelicans.

Mathurin (thumb) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Mathurin is set to miss a fifth consecutive game while recovering from a sprained right thumb. His next chance to play is Wednesday against the Raptors, but the fourth-year forward lacks a clear timeline for a return. Johnny Furphy should continue to start for the Pacers in Mathurin's absence.

Pacers' head coach Rick Carlisle said Sunday that Mathurin (thumb) will be out "a while," Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pacers reporter Dustin Dopirak noted that when Carlisle uses the "a while" timetable, it typically means the player will spend at least a week sidelined, and potentially multiple weeks. Therefore, it doesn't sound like Mathurin will be available during Week 12. Aaron Nesmith, Johnny Furphy and Ben Sheppard will all help fill the void while Mathurin is out.

Mathurin will not play Sunday against the Magic due to a right thumb sprain.
EDGE Analysis
This injury comes out of nowhere for an Indiana team that can't seem to catch a break on the injury front. With Mathurin sidelined for at least one contest, guys like Aaron Nesmith, Johnny Furphy and Ben Sheppard could be asked to step up on the wings.

Mathurin posted 23 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 13-13 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 112-110 loss to the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
It was the fourth-year guard's best performance of the season from the free-throw line, and the first time since Opening Night he's sunk double-digit free throws. Mathurin scored in double digits in 12 of 14 games in December, averaging 16.1 points, 5.4 boards, 4.1 threes and 1.9 assists on the month.
