Mathurin (ankle) is not expected to play Saturday against the Pistons, according to Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Rick Carlisle did not provide much clarity on Mathurin's sprained right ankle, but he is expecting him to miss a couple games. If Mathurin does end up missing time, Andrew Nembhard, Chris Duarte and T.J. McConnell will all be candidates to see more run.

Mathurin (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin was carried to the locker room in the first quarter after turning his right ankle on a drive to the basket and was initially ruled questionable to return prior to being ruled out for the contest. He finished without recording any statistics in his three minutes of play. T.J. McConnell and Chris Duarte should see more minutes off the bench for the rest of Thursday's game. Mathurin will have a chance to suit up Saturday in Detroit.

Mathurin (right ankle sprain) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Rockets, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin went down hard in the first quarter while driving to the basket and had to be carried off the floor and into the locker room. Although he looked to be in a lot of pain, Mathurin is officially questionable to return to the contest. For as long as he is out, T.J. McConnell and Chris Duarte should see more action off the bench.

Mathurin contributed six points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 124-122 victory over the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin started and ended February with rough performances. The rookie averaged just 7.5 points over the first four games of the month, his worst four-game stretch of the season. He followed that up with double-digits in six straight games. Despite Dallas' defensive struggles Tuesday, Mathurin made just one shot. It was an extremely disappointing night since his point production is the primary value he brings to fantasy.

Mathurin totaled 19 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 29 minutes during Saturday's 121-108 win over Orlando.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin scored in double digits for the sixth straight game, continuing what has been an impressive rookie season. Although his scoring output has been consistent, a lack of supporting stats continues to be an issue when it comes to overall fantasy appeal. Despite scoring upward of 17 points per game, he sits well outside the top 200 in nine-category formats. He remains a viable 12-team asset but is heavily geared toward managers needing points only.

Mathurin posted 22 points (7-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds and one steal over 33 minutes during Friday's 117-104 loss to the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin was the leading scorer for Indiana in this loss, but to be fair, the entire team struggled in an overall subpar performance for Indiana. Mathurin was excellent at the start of the season but has been playing poorly of late, as he has failed to reach double-digit scoring figures in three of his last five contests. He's averaging 10.4 points per game while shooting 40.5 percent from the field in that span.

Mathurin registered 27 points (9-20 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Sunday's 112-100 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin was a spark off the bench while leading the team in scoring and rebounds in a near-double-double performance. Mathurin has scored at least 20 points with five or more rebounds in two straight games, having scored 20 or more points in five consecutive outings.

Mathurin recorded 26 points (7-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 10-12 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 126-120 loss to the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin had a solid first half with 14 points on 4-of-7 shooting from the field to go along with four assists before going just 3-of-11 over the final two quarters as the Pacers fell to the Magic. The shooting guard also sank 10 of his 12 free-throw attempts to finish with a game-high 26 points, while his four assists were the most he's recorded in a contest since Nov. 7. Mathurin has now scored at least 20 points in three straight, shooting 44.2 percent from the field over that stretch.

Mathurin ended Tuesday's 116-110 win over the Bulls with 26 points (10-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds and two assists over 34 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin led all bench players in scoring while leading the Pacers second unit in rebounds during Tuesday's victory. Mathurin has tallied 20 or more points in two straight games, having done so 18 times this season.

Mathurin racked up 23 points (6-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 11-11 FT), five rebounds and one steal in 38 minutes during Saturday's 112-107 loss to the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin is one of the top scorers in this season's rookie class and showed it again with another excellent performance, reaching the 20-point threshold for the fourth time in January and 18th time this season. He has slowed down a bit compared to what he did in the first weeks of the campaign, but Mathurin remains a reliable fantasy contributor in points leagues thanks to his willingness to put up shots and get to the free-throw line at a high rate. However, Mathurin's poor mark from the field (42.1 percent for the season) and limited contributions in other areas (4.0 rebounds, 1.5 three-pointers, 1.4 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.1 blocks per game) make him far less useful in category leagues.
