Bennedict Mathurin completed his first season in the NBA on Sunday. To underline it all, his teammates imposed a rite of passage on him.
When he returned from New York, after the Indiana Pacers’ last game of the season against the Knicks, the veterans of the team waited impatiently for Mathurin in the parking lot.
Indeed, they covered his car with saran wrap type plastic wrap. The whole car was covered in it.
The Quebecer was both amazed, but impressed.
“It’s wonderful, it’s well done,” the 20-year-old said, unpacking. All year I feel that I have been appreciated by my teammates. »
Mathurin played 78 games for the Pacers, averaging 16.7 points per game in 2022-23.
