Assuming he doesn’t want to be a sixth man forever, this basically guarantees we have to trade Mathurin, right?

That is excellent news! Very good value as well.
I think his deal for next year is already locked in, so he’ll be under contract until 2028? Brilliant, love it for both sides, he is 28 by then, so if it all works out he can make a big splash in free agency then, or we can extend him again.
Have to say, Pritchard and Buchanan keep hitting homeruns with these contracts!

A bit confused at his role going forward when Mathurin comes back, starting SG? Backup PG? He seemed pretty pedestrian until the playoffs, was that a fluke or his coming out party?

Awesome contract. We have a lot of ball handlers but I hope we lock down TJ for the future run too.
When the pressure is on though Drew is locked in and I’m glad he will be a Pacer for years to come.

For anyone thinking “this is a ton of money”, the AAV of $19m would have been the 88th highest salary this year, tied w/ Keldon Johnsoin and Evan Fournier. By the time the extension kicks it, this may not even be top 100 salary in the NBA.
