Against the Hawks on Saturday, I heard a young Pacers fan, probably around the age of 8 years old yelling at Mathurin from the stands during pregame warmups.
The fan said, "Mr. Mathurin, Mr. Mathurin, you're my favorite player."
As Benn had just finished his shootaround, he went over to the kid and signed a Pacers basketball and chatted with him.
Mathurin was terrific with fans, and always made time for them. I am sure that young fan will be sad today, hearing their favorite player got traded away.
Trades are always tough on fans, especially if you're attached to a player and the team elects to move on from them.
Bennedict was terrific to work with, and I wish him nothing but the best in Los Angeles.

Indiana had the all time lowest winning percentage in cfb history when Curt Cignetti arrived. When he got on the mic at Assembly Hall and started saying everyone in the B1G sucked, I thought they’d hired a crazy man.
Nope.
THIS is crazy. Incredible turnaround. Salute Hoosiers
