EDGE Analysis

It's good to see Mathurin back on the court after he left Monday's matchup against Utah early due to a sprained left ankle. However, his status for Thursday's game against the Kings remains to be determined. Mathurin has scored in double figures in 12 straight games, averaging 17.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 26.8 minutes per game during that stretch.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin appeared to tweak his ankle by stepping on a teammate's foot while playing defense in the third quarter, and he then came up hobbled while attacking the basket on an ensuing Indiana possession. He remained in the game to take free throws but promptly headed to the locker room and was ruled out for the remainder of the contest shortly thereafter. Mathurin finishes Monday's abridged night with 11 points, while Jordan Nwora and Ben Sheppard will likely see increased run in his stead.

During that 10-game stretch, Mathurin is averaging 18.1 points per game while shooting 54.5 percent from the field.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin was one of Indiana's best offensive players despite coming off the bench, and he made the most of his minutes by putting up his seventh 20-point game of the season. Three of those outings have come over Indiana's last five games, so Mathurin is going through his most productive stretch of the campaign. Though to be fair, he doesn't add much to the table consistently outside of his scoring figures.
