Pelicans' Bennedict Mathurin: Starting Thursday's exhibition
Mathurin is listed in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against Miami.
Mathurin impressed during the preseason opener, finishing with 13 points in just 17 minutes of action off the bench. He'll have a chance to show what he can do with the first unit Thursday while Dejounte Murray (toe) sits and Herbert Jones rotates to the bench.

Pelicans' Bennedict Mathurin: Leading scorer in preseason win
Mathurin scored a team-high 13 points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT) while chipping in five assists and two rebounds in 17 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's preseason win over the Thunder.
The 24-year-old wing signed a two-year deal with New Orleans in August, and he demonstrated his ability to provide offense from the second unit in Tuesday's win. Mathurin is coming off a 2025026 campaign that saw him average a career-high 17.6 points, 5.4 boards, 2.4 assists and 0.8 steals while also adding 1.4 threes in 30.0 minutes a game between the Pacers and Clippers, but he's unlikely to see that large a workload with the Pelicans.

Pelicans' Bennedict Mathurin: Signs deal with Pelicans
Mathurin signed a two-year, $16 million deal with the Pelicans on Wednesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The deal includes a player option for the second season. Mathurin was previously a restricted free agent, but the Pelicans approached the Clippers about withdrawing the qualifying offer prior to this deal. In New Orleans, Mathurin is expected to be a key part of the second unit behind Trey Murphy and Saddiq Bey.

Clippers' Bennedict Mathurin: Path to minutes even tougher
The Clippers' acquisition of Max Strus adds another established wing while Mathurin's future with the club remains unresolved as a restricted free agent.
Strus can absorb minutes at both wing spots and brings shooting and playoff experience, potentially making the Clippers less dependent on retaining Mathurin. However, Los Angeles remained below the first apron following the trade, so the addition of Strus doesn't necessarily prevent Mathurin from returning. His fantasy outlook will depend heavily on where he ultimately signs and what role is available there.

Clippers' Bennedict Mathurin: Qualifying offer tendered
The Clippers tendered Mathurin a qualifying offer Monday, per Michael Scotto of USA Today.
The move will make Mathurin a restricted free agent. The Clippers can match any offer sheet he receives from other teams, and they'll likely make every effort to retain him following last season's Ivica Zubac trade.

Clippers' Bennedict Mathurin: More competition in backcourt
Mathurin could be set for a reserve role if he remains with the Clippers in 2026-27 due to the selection of Keaton Wagler with the No. 5 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
Mathurin operated almost exclusively off the bench for Los Angeles in 2025-26, making just one start after being traded away from the Pacers. The 2022 first-rounder is slated to become a restricted free agent, so the Clippers do have the ability to match any offer sheet he receives from other teams. If Mathurin sticks around, he'll likely be competing with Wagler and Kris Dunn for the starting spot at shooting guard during training camp in the fall.

Clippers' Bennedict Mathurin: Scores 23 points off bench
Mathurin ended with 23 points (7-11 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists and three steals across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 126-121 Play-In Game loss to the Warriors.
Following his trade from the Pacers, Mathurin found some success in a bench role with the Clippers. He made 26 appearances (one start) and posted averages of 17.4 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.7 three-pointers in 28.0 minutes per contest. However, he struggled from the perimeter, hitting 20.7 percent from three-point range.

Clippers' Bennedict Mathurin: Posts team-high 20 points
Mathurin recorded 20 points (7-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists and one block across 32 minutes during Sunday's 115-110 victory over the Warriors.
Mathurin stepped up amid Kawhi Leonard's (wrist/knee) absence and produced a solid line. Mathurin came two assists and one rebound shy of a triple-double. Mathurin's numbers have tapered off a bit in recent weeks, but his success against the Warriors should result in another good outing, given the upcoming rematch against Golden State in the Play-In Tournament.
