In his pre-draft media availability, former Arizona guard Bennedict Mathurin said the player he’s most excited to play against is Oklahoma City Thunder guard Lu Dort.
Since both are from Montreal, Canada, Mathurin said he has a prior relationship with Dort, who has helped mentor him. But when it comes time to face off in their first NBA game against each other, Mathurin said he is ready to show Dort he is more than capable against him.
“He calls me little bro, but I’m going to show him it’s me that’s big bro,” joked Mathurin.
