Pacers center Myles Turner has been the source of much scrutiny over his young NBA career. The term “bust” was being thrown around, with even some Pacers fans calling for him to be traded for assets.
I have long been a major defender of Turner on Pacers Twitter and beyond, but I have to admit my concern after the first 12-15 games of the new season. He did not record a double-digit rebound game until the 16th contest against the Atlanta Hawks.
My concern, yet genuine hope for Turner came in the form of an article I wrote just before the Pacers match-up with the Utah Jazz on November 19th.
