Myles Turner Second In Blocks in the Playoffs

Myles Turner is the steal of the draft as the Indiana Pacers’ No. 11 pick continues to impress despite being a 20-year old rookie in the playoffs.

He’s second in blocks in the postseason with 3.4 blocks a game, just behind the Miami Heat’s Hassan Whiteside. Among rookies in the playoffs, Dallas’ Salah Mejri is the next closest with 1.3 blocks a game.

He’s also leading all rookies in the postseason with 11.7 points a game, more than Stanley Johnson, Frank Kaminsky, and Justise Winslow, all of which were picked before him in last year’s draft.
