Why Did Bennedict Mathurin Leave the Game? What Injury Did He Suffer?
Mathurin left the game around 1:15 left in the second quarter, after landing awkwardly and taking a second before getting back up. He subbed out a few moments after his hard fall, and headed back to the locker room before his teammates, who would join him later.

So far, there’s no update from the team about his status, so all we can do is wait for more clarity. He was set to be the primary scoring option without Kawhi Leonard tonight. Shortly after he subbed out, Bogdan Bogdanovic knocked down the first three of the game for the Clippers, helping them cap off a 19-6 run to cap off the first half.
When the game resumed after halftime, however, fans got good news, because Mathurin was back. but he’s yet to get back to scoring at a high level.
