BREAKING NEWS: NBA Suspends Indiana Pacers’ Bennedict Mathurin for ‘Inappropriate Contact’ With Female Official

January 19, 2025 – New York, NY

The NBA has officially suspended Indiana Pacers’ guard Bennedict Mathurin for one game following an incident during last night’s game against the Toronto Raptors. The league announced the suspension after reviewing video footage that showed Mathurin making inappropriate contact with a female official late in the third quarter of the Pacers’ 120-115 loss.

According to the NBA’s statement, the contact occurred when Mathurin, in an apparent moment of frustration, inadvertently made contact with the official while attempting to contest a foul call. The league’s review determined that the contact, while not intentional, was still deemed inappropriate and against the NBA’s standards of conduct for players.

“We take these matters very seriously,” said NBA Commissioner Adam Silver in the statement. “While there was no malicious intent, any physical contact with an official is unacceptable and will not be tolerated, regardless of the circumstances. We expect our players to show respect for the officials and maintain professionalism at all times.”

Pacers' Bennedict Mathurin suspended 1 game for 'inappropriate contact'  with referee

The incident took place during a critical moment of the game, with the Pacers trailing the Raptors and emotions running high. Mathurin, who has been one of the team’s most promising young stars, appeared to be frustrated with the officiating throughout the contest. The contact, which was minor in nature, was captured on the broadcast, leading to immediate discussions among fans and analysts.

After the game, Mathurin issued an apology, acknowledging the gravity of the situation. “I want to sincerely apologize to the official and to the fans for my actions,” Mathurin said. “I have the utmost respect for the referees and their role in the game, and I deeply regret letting my emotions get the best of me. I’ll learn from this and work to ensure it doesn’t happen again.”

The NBA’s decision to suspend Mathurin comes as part of the league’s ongoing commitment to ensuring a respectful and professional environment during games. In the wake of the incident, the league has also announced additional training and educational initiatives for players regarding proper conduct toward officials and other personnel.

The Pacers, in a separate statement, expressed their support for the league’s decision. “The Indiana Pacers fully support the NBA’s decision and share in the commitment to maintaining respect and professionalism on the court,” the team said. “Bennedict is a great player and an important part of our future, and we are confident he will learn from this situation and continue to grow as both a player and a person.”

Mathurin, who has been averaging 19.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.6 assists this season, will serve his suspension during the Pacers’ next game against the Boston Celtics on January 21. The Pacers will be without their dynamic scorer, but the team has indicated that Mathurin’s absence will provide an opportunity for other players to step up and contribute.

The suspension serves as a reminder of the NBA’s strong stance on maintaining the integrity of the game and holding players accountable for their actions. As the Pacers move forward, all eyes will be on how Mathurin responds to the incident and how his team handles his absence in the upcoming game.
