Mathurin at a Free-Agent Fork: Stay with Clippers on QO or Join Pelicans via S&T

Restricted free agent Bennedict Mathurin is deciding between re-signing with the Clippers on a one-year qualifying offer ($8.7M) and becoming an unrestricted free agent in 2027, or joining the Pelicans via a sign-and-trade using the Non-Taxpayer MLE, with New Orleans weighing cap moves (including potentially moving Jordan Hawkins) to stay under the luxury tax; the QO path yields a one-year no-trade clause, while the S&T path would reshape both teams’ cap situations.

Pacers land Zubac in blockbuster center swap with Clippers

Indiana trades Bennedict Mathurin, Isaiah Jackson, two first-round picks (one 2026 protected 1-4 and 10-30; if not conveyed, an unprotected 2031 first) and a 2029 unprotected first, plus a second, to the Clippers to land Ivica Zubac and Kobe Brown. The move gives Indiana a much-needed center upgrade ahead of Tyrese Haliburton’s return, while Zubac (under contract through 2027-28) averages about 14.4 points and 11.0 rebounds this season and Mathurin is set to be an RFA this offseason.

Clippers ship Zubac to Pacers for Mathurin, Jackson and two first‑round picks

The Clippers are trading center Ivica Zubac to the Indiana Pacers for Bennedict Mathurin and Isaiah Jackson, plus the Pacers’ 2026 first-round pick (top-four protected and 10–30 protected), the Pacers’ 2029 unprotected first-round pick, and the Mavericks’ 2028 second-round pick. Los Angeles also receives Kobe Brown, with a conditional 2031 unprotected first-rounder going to the Clippers if the 2026 pick doesn’t finish 5–9. The deal pairs Indiana’s need for a starting center with L.A.’s move to add youth and multiple future picks during a potential rebuild.

"Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin Undergoes Season-Ending Shoulder Surgery"

Indiana Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, dealing a blow to the team's playoff push. The second-year player, who had shown improvement in his scoring efficiency and defensive skills, will be sorely missed, especially by the second unit. With other key players like Doug McDermott also sidelined, the Pacers will need to rely on rookies like Ben Sheppard and Jarace Walker to step up in Mathurin's absence, putting more pressure on All-Stars Tyrese Haliburton and Pascal Siakam to carry the team.

"Key Players to Watch at the 2023 NBA Summer League"

As the NBA Summer League kicks off, second and third-year players like Chet Holmgren, Tari Eason, Bennedict Mathurin, and Jaden Springer have something to prove.
