Pacers sign Garrison Mathews to standard deal, waive Jeremiah Robinson

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Pacers are signing sharpshooter Garrison Mathews to a standard, non-guaranteed contract after he played through two 10-day hardship exception contracts. They are also waiving forward Jeremiah Robinson-Earl to create space, league sources confirmed to the IndyStar on Thursday. Tony East of Forbes had it first.

Mathews' second 10-day contract expired Thursday, Dec. 11, and players cannot sign a third 10-day contract through the hardship exception system, even if the team is granted another hardship exception.
