Bennedict Mathurin Wins Rising Stars MVP

Bennedict Mathurin Wins Rising Stars MVP

The All-Star Weekend festivities started off strong, with Bennedict Mathurin putting on two masterclasses to help Team Jalen win the championship.

The young guard not only nailed the game-winning shot to get them past the semis but also received MVP chants being rained down, which is beyond cool for Mathurin.

“It was fun. It was fun to see, to receive those chants,” Mathurin said. “The Rising Stars Game, I feel like I haven’t really gotten that feeling in the NBA. One day I want to be MVP, so it was great to have that feeling pretty early in my career.”

The hometown hero gets the job done, as Friday was a thrilling night for fans in the association.
