Bennedict Mathurin has been playing at an elite level this season for the Pacers being one of the surprises of the draft. However, in the most recent contest, the rookie injured his ankle in what looked like a pretty bad injury.

The question is, will Bennedict Mathurin be on the court and playing against the Detroit Pistons with the Indiana Pacers on March 11th?
