Indiana Pacers head coach Frank Vogel made the decision to give rookie Myles Turner his first NBA start Thursday night. Turner scored 20 points and added on six rebounds as the Pacers defeated the Atlanta Hawks 111-92.
It may be safe to say that Vogel's decision to start the 19-year-old Turner Thursday night was long overdue. After showing flashes of his potential throughout the last few weeks Turner finally got his opportunity to cash in, and cash in he did.
In his 1st NBA start, Myles Turner drops a cool 20 Pts with 6 Reb.
