The question kept getting asked again and again. “When will Myles Turner be the starter?”

We now have an answer, at least for tonight. Vogel confirmed he plans to start Myles Turner for the first time in his career — tonight as a power forward — as they face the Atlanta Hawks.

“I’m gonna give at least until halftime tonight. If the first half doesn’t go well, then it’s out.” Vogel said.

Turner has played in 23 games this season but he’s been coming off the bench in every game. He didn’t get an invite for the Rising Stars Challenge at All-Star Weekend, but that was likely because only playing in 23 games.
