Player Review 2017: Myles Turner

Age: 21
Years pro: 2
Status: The Pacers picked up the option for the third season of his rookie contract, and will have the option for a fourth.
Key stats: Started all 81 games in which he played. Averaged 14.5 points on 51 percent shooting, along with team-high averages of 7.2 rebounds and 2.1 blocks.

He's a man. He's 21. He's not a kid. So, the expectations for Myles Turner are rising.

It's sometimes easy to forget his youth, given his physique and maturity, and therefore easier to criticize him for shortcomings.
