In 2014, Myles Turner had been one of the top recruits in the high school basketball circuit. He would eventually commit to the University of Texas and play one season there. The Indiana Pacers selected him in the 2015 NBA Draft, where he has since developed into one of the team’s top players.
On Wednesday, Turner penned an article on The Players’ Tribune, which dove into his basketball life. He opens up the piece with, “I wanted to quit basketball,” and starts from his time in high school.
In the middle of the article, Turner discussed how he got to Texas and even said how Austin hadn’t been his first destination.
