EDGE Analysis

Mathurin was ejected from Tuesday's game after receiving a pair of technical fouls, one for hanging on the rim and a second for arguing and making contact with an official. Mathurin will serve the suspension Thursday, but he's expected to be back in action for Saturday's matchup with the 76ers. While he's suspended, Jarace Walker and Johnny Furphy should see more minutes.

Mathurin was ejected from Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers after being assessed his second technical foul, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

EDGE Analysis

After getting a technical foul for hanging on the rim earlier in the contest, Mathurin was tossed from the game for arguing a foul call during the fourth quarter. His night ends with 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 31 minutes. Jarace Walker is filling in for Mathurin in the fourth period.

Mathurin finished with 21 points (9-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt), 10 rebounds and two assists across 34 minutes during Friday's 108-96 victory over the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

The double-double was Mathurin's seventh of the season and second in the last four games, while the 25 points represented his highest total since he dropped 28 on the Raptors on Nov. 18. The third-year wing is still prone to quiet nights -- he scored just eight points Wednesday against the Bulls -- but he's scored in double digits in nine of the last 10 contests, averaging 16.1 points, 5.9 boards, 2.3 assists and 1.6 threes over that stretch.

Mathurin posted 20 points (8-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 31 minutes during Monday's 113-99 win over the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin has reached the 20-point mark for the second time across his last four games, and he seems to be trending in the right direction after posting subpar numbers throughout December. He's averaging 16.5 points per game while shooting 49 percent from the floor over his last eight games, and the third-year forward should remain a reliable offensive weapon as long as he remains in a starting role.

Mathurin scored 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), grabbed 10 boards and dished four assists in 34 minutes of play during the 126-108 win over the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

The well-rounded display marked Mathurin's seventh double-double of the season and first since the end of November. Although he didn't score in bunches as he's always a threat to do, it was encouraging to see him dish the rock a bit more, tying his season-high assists mark.

Mathurin logged 25 points (10-18 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-5 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 37 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 loss to Milwaukee.

EDGE Analysis

For the first time since Nov. 27, Mathurin eclipsed 20 points. He had a difficult month overall with 14.4 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 three-pointers on 42.0 percent from the field and 28.8 percent from beyond the arc across 14 December outings. Tuesday's performance could be an indication that he's ready to put his slump behind him.

Mathurin racked up 14 points (6-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and one assist over 29 minutes during Sunday's 123-114 win over the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

After a rough shooting night in the win over the Warriors, Mathurin bounced back with a vengeance against one of the best teams in the league. The young guard continues to prove he deserves to be a starter while putting up career numbers in points (16.6) and rebounds (6.2).

Mathurin registered 12 points (5-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 36 minutes during Monday's 111-105 victory over the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Despite reaching double figures, Mathurin's overall stat line was lacking. He's struggled to produce peripheral stats this season, posting averages of 12.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 three-pointers in 33.9 minutes across 10 December contests. He also shot just 37.9 percent from the field and 20.5 percent from beyond the arc in that span.

Mathurin provided 11 points (4-11 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one steal over 34 minutes during Sunday's 113-109 loss to the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin suffered through a tough shooting night on the offensive end, but he's now scored in double digits in nine of his previous 10 appearances. The 22-year-old continues to show improvement this season, averaging a career-high 17.8 points on 47.1 shooting from the field through his first 25 games of the 2024-25 campaign.

Mathurin closed with 19 points (5-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), nine rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes during Sunday's 136-121 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

Mathurin did all he could to help Indiana come out on top Sunday, leading all Pacers in scoring and rebounds while concluding one board shy of a double-double in a losing effort. Mathurin has recorded at least 10 points and nine rebounds in four of his last six outings, and he's hauled in at least nine boards on eight occasions this season.
