Pacers are flirting with regrettable Bennedict Mathurin decision

Bennedict Mathurin shouldn't be untouchable, but the Pacers are still better off keeping him around past the trade deadline.

One of the biggest storylines surrounding the Indiana Pacers this season is what the future holds for Bennedict Mathurin.

The team chose not to sign the Canadian native to a rookie-scale contract extension last summer, meaning he's likely headed towards restricted free agency this offseason. However, they can decide to trade him ahead of this year's deadline (most likely for an upgrade at center) and just move on from him entirely.
