Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin: Not ready to return yet

Mathurin (toe) is not ready to return yet but is "getting close," head coach Rick Carlisle told Alex Golden of the 'Setting the Pace' podcast. "He's moving in a good direction," Carlisle said.

Carlisle also added that Mathurin participated in a simulated game Saturday, so it seems the Pacers believe he'll be ready to return in the near future. Mathurin's next chance to play will come Monday against the Raptors, and Indiana is expected to provide an update on his status by Sunday night.
