Following a solid rookie campaign, Mathurin failed to take any major steps forward during the 2023-24 season before it was cut short due to shoulder surgery. Although he is expected to be fully healthy for the start of training camp, Mathurin will need to make some improvements on both ends of the floor, should he hope to attract the attention of fantasy managers. He finished as the 239th-ranked player in nine-category leagues last year, averaging 14.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.4 three-pointers. His scoring was down when compared to his rookie season, however, he did manage to shoot the ball slightly better. The Pacers as a team took some major steps forward, earning themselves an Eastern Conference Finals appearance. After a deep postseason run, they opted to stick with basically the same roster heading into the 2024-25 campaign. This should mean that Mathurin will continue to come off the bench, serving as the sixth man. Mathurin can be considered a last-round target for anyone simply seeking a boost in points. If he is unable to make any improvements, Mathurin could find himself an elite streaming option and nothing more.
