The time has come, Myles Turner.
When the Pacers drafted the big man, he was hurdled as a high-upside project out of Texas. He was a raw talent, but as raw as tartar. Turner served as the future star to accompany Paul George through the latter’s prime seasons. We didn’t know much about him outside of his one season at Texas that only included seven starts as a Freshman. Nonetheless, Larry Bird saw enough to use his eleventh overall pick on him, the team’s highest pick since taking George tenth overall in 2010.
The Pacers took on the project with the goofy hairstyle.
