Pacers beat Magic 117-104 as Myles Turner scores 23 points

Myles Turner, a player the Magic passed up to select Mario Hezonja, led the Indiana Pacers to a 117-104 win over the Magic at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

Turner scored a game-high 23 points, collected a game-high 12 rebounds and dished out three assists.

Turner starts at center for the Pacers, and he often controlled play as the Pacers built a double-digit lead in the first half.

Midway through the second quarter, Turner hurled a line-drive pass to Thaddeus Young, resulting in an easy layup for Young. The basket put the Pacers ahead 42-32.
