    • Reggie Miller reincarnate: Turner nails 7 triples
      Myles Turner racked up a game-high 29 points in Sunday’s win over Milwaukee, adding nine rebounds, four assists, three blocked shots and seven three-pointers across 38 minutes.

      Advice: Turner etched his name in the history books, as he tied Bojan Bogdanovic, Chuck Person, Paul George and Reggie Miller for the most threes made in a Pacers playoff game. Tyrese Haliburton had a strong game of his own, going for 24 points and five triples on 8-of-16 shooting, but it was Turner who stole the spotlight with this masterful performance. The depleted Bucks kept this one close, but Indiana won its second straight at home to take a commanding 3-1 series leading heading back to Fiserv Forum. Indiana can close out the first-round series with a win on Tuesday and advance to the Conference semifinals for the first time since the 2013-14 season. If Turner plays like this again, it will be tough to stop Indiana. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:07 pm
       
    • Leads from deep in balanced Game 4
      Turner posted 29 points (10-17 FG, 7-9 3Pt, 2-6 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and three blocks over 38 minutes in Sunday's 126-113 win over the Bucks in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Turner continued his strong performance in the series against Milwaukee, taking advantage of the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) by putting together another well-rounded outing to help Indiana to a commanding 3-1 series lead. Turner led all players in Sunday's contest in threes made while leading the Pacers in scoring, rebounds and blocks in a near double-double showing. Turner has been dominant all series, posting at least 20 points and seven rebounds in three of his four postseason outings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:54 pm
       
    • Myles Turner drops playoff career-high 29 in win
      Myles Turner led Indiana with 29 points (10-of-21 FGs), nine rebounds, one assist, one steal and four 3-pointers in Game 3 against the Bucks on Friday.

      Advice: Turner had a big game on Friday and ended up setting a new playoff career-high for points. He had a tough Game 1, but he has been very effective in Games 2 and 3, both of which have been wins. His big performance helped the Pacers take a 2-1 lead in the series, and they’ll need another big game out of him on Sunday in order to take a 3-1 lead in the series and maintain homecourt advantage.

    • Nears double-double as top scorer
      Turner notched 29 points (10-21 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal over 41 minutes in Friday's 121-118 overtime win over Milwaukee in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Turner led all Indiana players in scoring and shots made from deep while ending one rebound shy of a double-double to boost the Pacers to a thrilling overtime victory to take a series lead against the Bucks. Turner has posted at least 15 points and seven rebounds in all three first-round games, connecting on three or more threes in every outing so far in the series. Rotowire.com Friday, 5:47 pm
       
    • Posts 22/7/6 line in victory
      Turner produced 22 points (9-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and three blocks in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 125-108 victory over the Bucks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.

      Advice: Turner's value for the Pacers can't be understated, as the veteran consistently provides solid interior support. Interestingly, his exposure in fantasy contests is very low, making him one of the most underrated centers in the playoff bracket. Although players like Jalen Smith and Isaiah Jackson challenged Turner for playing time in the regular season, neither of the backups saw any playing time in Indiana's Game 2 win.

    • Myles Turner tallies 22 points, three blocks
      Myles Turner played 34 minutes in Tuesday’s win over the Bucks, amassing 22 points (9-of-15 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), seven rebounds, six assists, three blocks, and three 3-pointers.

      Advice: After shooting 5-of-17 from the field in Sunday’s Game 1 defeat, Turner was considerably better in Game 2. He was efficient as a scorer, shooting 60% from the field and 50% from three while also accounting for six assists (and no turnovers) and three blocked shots. If Turner can consistently reach this level of play, the Pacers can win this series, especially if Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) remains sidelined. Game 3 is on Friday in Indianapolis.

    • Myles Turner records 17/8/2/2 stat line vs. Bucks
      Myles Turner shot 5-of-17 from the field and 4-of-6 from the foul line in Sunday’s 109-94 loss to Milwaukee, accounting for 17 points, eight rebounds, two assists, two steals, and three 3-pointers in 33 minutes.

      Advice: At first glance, Turner recorded a decent stat line in Sunday’s series opener. However, he was 3-of-10 from three and 5-of-17 overall, offering minimal value in the paint on both ends of the floor. Turner’s ability to hit perimeter shots is a valuable asset, but the Pacers may need a little more from him in the interior in this series. Also, he did not record a blocked shot after tallying at least one in his final 13 games of the regular season. Turner and the Pacers will look to rebound on Tuesday when the teams get together for Game 2. Rotoworld Apr 21, 7:12 pm
