Won't start Tuesday Mathurin will come off the bench during Tuesday's game against the Bucks, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact The 22-year-old swingman will come off the bench due to Tyrese Haliburton (hip) returning to game action. Mathurin has appeared in two consecutive contests (one start) following a four-game absence due to a left wrist sprain, accumulating 35 points, 10 rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 63 total minutes.

Rough shooting performance Mathurin contributed five points (2-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and three assists across 23 minutes during Monday's 121-103 loss to the Bulls.

Impact Mathurin struggled from the field Monday after erupting for 30 points Saturday against the Hawks. The 22-year-old forward connected on only two of his nine field-goal attempts against Chicago, finishing with five points, far lower than his 16.2 points per game average.

Starting Monday vs. Chicago Mathurin is in the Pacers' starting lineup against the Bulls on Monday, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

Impact Mathurin will make his first start since Feb. 8 due to the absence of Tyrese Haliburton (hip). Mathurin returned Saturday from a four-game absence due to a left wrist sprain and finished with 30 points, eight rebounds, five assists and two steals over 40 minutes.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Pours in 30 in return Mathurin recorded 30 points (9-20 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 8-10 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and two steals in 40 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 120-118 loss to Atlanta.

Impact The third-year wing led the Pacers in scoring on the night and nearly dragged them to a comeback win after they found themselves staring at a 20-point deficit heading into the second quarter. Mathurin has missed the previous four games due to a wrist issue, but he looked 100 percent healthy upon his return. The 30 points represented his best scoring effort since he erupted for 38 against the Knicks on Nov. 10.

Bennedict Mathurin (Left Wrist Sprain) Gets Loose for Return to Lineup at Hawks | Indiana Pacers

MARCH 8 • YOUTUBE

Upgraded to available Mathurin (wrist) is available for Saturday's game against the Hawks, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

Impact Head coach Rick Carlisle "doesn't know for sure" if there will be a restriction on Mathurin's minutes, but the forward will suit up following a four-game absence. Mathurin is averaging 15.2 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game in 11 outings off the bench this season.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to play Saturday Mathurin (wrist) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Atlanta.

Impact Mathurin is in jeopardy of missing his fourth consecutive contest Saturday due to a left wrist sprain. With Tyrese Haliburton (hip) also having been deemed questionable, Aaron Nesmith (hip), Ben Sheppard and T.J. McConnell are all candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Out vs. Atlanta Mathurin (wrist) is out for Thursday's game against the Hawks, Tony East of WTHR Channel 13 Indianapolis reports.

Impact The Pacers will be shorthanded in terms of scoring weapons Thursday since they'll be missing both Mathurin and Tyrese Haliburton (hip). This will be Mathurin's fourth straight absence due to a left wrist sprain, and it's unclear if he'll be ready to return for a rematch against the Hawks on Saturday.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Thursday Mathurin (wrist) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Hawks, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Mathurin is dealing with a left wrist sprain that has sidelined him for the last three games. A decision on his status will probably be made closer to Thursday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff. If he can't go, expect Aaron Nesmith, Andrew Nembhard and Ben Sheppard to see more minutes to compensate for the loss of Mathurin, particularly on the offensive end of the court.
