The Pacers fall to the Clippers 130-107, but the final score wasn’t the biggest storyline of the night.
For the first time since the Zubac trade, Indiana faced Bennedict Mathurin and Isaiah Jackson — two players the Pacers drafted, developed and ultimately moved at the deadline. Naturally, all eyes were on how the former Pacers performed against their old team.
Did Mathurin look like the scorer Clippers fans were hoping for?
Did Isaiah Jackson flash the athleticism Pacers fans remember?
And what did this matchup reveal about the trade from both sides?
Alex and Casey Johnson break down the performances from Mathurin and Jackson, what stood out in the reunion game, and what this matchup told us about where both franchises are headed.
Plus, the guys discuss Indiana’s struggles in the loss, what went wrong defensively, and the bigger picture implications as the Pacers continue navigating this late-season stretch.
