Bennedict Mathurin News: Serviceable effort in debut
Mathurin racked up nine points (4-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and three steals across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 102-95 loss to the Rockets.
Cleared to make his Clippers debut after coming across in last week's deadline deal with Indiana, Mathurin came off the bench and chipped in across multiple categories. While Mathurin looks poised to play a key role for his new team, fantasy managers know exactly what they are getting when rostering the 23-year-old. If managers ignore the field-goal percentage and deal with inconsistent defensive contributions, Mathurin is fine to hold as a back-end piece on 12-team rosters.
