Pacers pick up option on Myles Turner
The Indiana Pacers picked up center Myles Turner's fourth-year option on Friday.
What It Means:
Turner, the 11th pick in the 2015 draft, averaged 14.5 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.1 blocks in 31.4 minutes per game a year ago. He's poised for a breakout season in 2017-18, with Paul George traded and not much going on around him in terms of scoring and usage.
Over 79 games and 35.4 minutes a night, Turner is projected for 17.0 points, 8.9 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game this season. Tonight, though, we have him at 40.2 FanDuel points at a price of $7,200 against the Brooklyn Nets.
