Bennedict Mathurin had a huge game off the bench in the Indiana Pacers' Game 3 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night. Mathurin was the leading scorer in the game with 27 points in just 22 minutes.

During his podcast after Game 1 of the NBA Finals he said that Mathurin looked comfortable in the series and he suggested he might have a game where he scored 27 points in 22 minutes, which it turns out is as impressive a stat line as it is a prediction.
