Pacers HC Provides Update on Bennedict Mathurin and Taelon Martin's Injuries
The Indiana Pacers suffered a 128-103 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, with guards Bennedict Mathurin and Taelon Martin exiting the game early due to injuries.
Head coach Rick Carlisle addressed the media, stating:
“It’s Ben’s forefoot. We’ll see how he is and whether he needs imaging done. We’ll get to probably Dallas tomorrow, Sunday. I don’t know if there’s any MRI places open tomorrow… And Taelon’s got a groin thing, right? On paper, we might have 10 or 11 guys tomorrow. But we’ll have to see.”
Mathurin's injury is in the forefoot, with possible further testing needed, but the timing is to be determined due to a back-to-back game.
The Pacers may have only 10 or 11 players available for the next game.
