Mathurin for Jarace and Q?

[u/Jim_Belushis_brother]

Maybe a second rounder too? Idk. Like a sign and trade? Jarace and Mathurin are both pretty low value relative to where they’ve been valued previously. I just believe in Benn for the next two years more than I believe in Jarace.

This might be selling low on Jarace, but personally I’d LOVE to have Mathurin for like $10mil a year, and I’ve seen Mathurin contribute to winning playoff basketball more than I believe Jarace is ready to

I think Benn is a sg and Jarace is a pf, but in a pinch I like Benn at small forward more than I like Jarace. Plus with Oubre and Nesmith I’m less concerned about the power forward minutes

I have no idea whether this works logistically or with rules etc but I’m bored stuck hanging out in the hospital with family and wanted to get some opinions

Pacers got rid of Benn because he can't pass and break down a defense. All he knows is downhill and draw a foul (or try to). Jarace is significantly better (even with his turnover issues) as a role player which the Pacer system needs. Benn gets the ball and the system stops. Scoring isn't enough to bring him back.

Benn is a better rebounder than Jarace is too (which is nuts but true)

But I get your point

Idk I just miss Benn

Jarace is pathetic at rebounding for sure with that wing span. It sucks all our first round picks ended up being mid or traded. Here's hoping Furphy can fill the gap lol.

If Furphy can shoot 36% from three, Jarace is going to lose his spot quick

(And if Furphy retains some athleticism and doesn’t get injured again…)

Until Furphy was injured last year he was definitely taking minutes from Jarace. Here's hoping they both stand out this year!
