Mathurin was on an expiring deal and it seemed likely he'd be moved vs. re-signed. A bit of pre-agency work by L.A. Garland Mathurin backcourt 👀 Pacers get their centre. They're going to be a problem next season with a presumably healthy Tyrese Haliburton and a top draft pick added to the mix. Pacers get their centre.
