Myles Turner Says Absolutely Not to Austin Rivers’ Layup

Welcome to the Myles High Club, Austin Rivers.

Austin Rivers was looking for an easy layup after an Indiana Pacers turnover, but Myles Turner put the guard in his sights as soon as he crossed half-court.

Rivers tried getting into Turner’s body to prevent the block, but Turner wasn’t bothered at all.

You sometimes forget how wide of a wingspan Turner has, but this play is a reminder that he defends the rim at a high level.

The Pacers led 50-40 at halftime.
