Bennedict Mathurin stood at the free-throw line with a chance to cut a four-point deficit in half and give the Pacers a chance for another comeback.

Mathurin supplied eight points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-8 FT), two rebounds and one block in 14 minutes during Friday's 111-104 loss to the Thunder in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.

Bennedict Mathurin, who missed last year's playoff run due to a shoulder injury, has been waiting for a moment like this. He delivered in Game 3.

The NBA Finals — a showcase of sorts for Canadian basketball — resumes Wednesday night in Indianapolis. The series is tied 1-1.
