Wed May 2209:41Myles Turner Stands Out In Game 1 Against Boston With Hot Start
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner contributed all over the floor in Tuesday's Game 1 against Boston, registering 23 points, 10 rebounds, four assists, and two blocks in a 133-128 overtime loss. Indiana's big man got off to a red-hot start in the contest and racked up 18 points in the first half with 7-for-10 shooting. His scoring pace was much slower after the break, but it was still an impressive outing from Turner, who finished with 9-for-13 shooting, hitting three of his four attempts from deep. Indiana will hope to see more of the same from Turner in Game 2.

Sun May 1919:06Myles Turner Steps Up Defensively On Sunday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner had 17 points in Sunday's win over the Knicks to help his team advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. While Tyrese Haliburton led the way by scoring 26 points, Turner stepped up in a big way on the defensive end by supplying four blocks. At any rate, the 28-year-old played well during this series. However, DFS managers aren't as encouraged with Indiana's upcoming series versus the Celtics, with Turner averaging 14 points and seven rebounds in five meetings with Boston during the regular season. But with Kristaps Porzingis (calf) expected to miss at least a few more games, Turner's production could improve. .

Fri May 1022:32Myles Turner Bounces Back In Game 3
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner looked good in Friday's playoff victory over the New York Knicks. The 28-year-old had only six points in Game 2 on Wednesday. Yet, he scored 21 points in Game 3 to help his squad win their first game of the Conference semifinals. The Knicks were without OG Anunoby (hamstring), which was a crushing blow for the defense. However, New York will likely adjust heading into Game 4 on Sunday, so Turner could have trouble replicating his performance from Friday night.

Tue May 710:39Myles Turner Leads Pacers In Scoring Monday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner led the team with 23 points in Monday's Game 1 loss to the Knicks. This was a good bounce-back performance from Indiana's big man after he finished the series finale against Milwaukee with only five points. Turner shot 8-for-16 from the field with two makes from downtown and notched three rebounds, three assists, one steal, and one block. The 2024 postseason had gone well for Turner, who's averaging 19.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 1.1 blocks in 33.6 minutes. He played a very efficient game against the Knicks during the regular season, and it looks like Turner will also have plenty of success in the playoff series against them.

Sun Apr 2821:45Myles Turner Dominates Game 4
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner had a game-high 29 points in Sunday's playoff victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. He was locked in from deep, going 7-for-9, adding nine rebounds and three blocks. The Bucks were without Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf), and with Bobby Portis getting ejected, Turner took advantage to finish with one of the best games of his career. The 28-year-old has been rolling, so he'll be a favorite DFS option for Game 5 on Tuesday, with the Pacers hoping to finish the series.

Mon Apr 1509:13Myles Turner Dominates Against Hawks
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner completed the 2023-24 regular season with a bang, scoring a team-high 31 points and grabbing 12 rebounds in a 157-115 victory over Atlanta. He was also in dominant form defensively, swatting away four shots. Turner missed only one of his four attempts from deep and shot 13-for-17 overall in just 22 minutes of action. This should give the Pacers big man a nice bit of momentum ahead of the playoff series against Milwaukee. The Bucks have struggled against Indiana all year, with Turner going for 19.4 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks in the matchup.

Fri Apr 518:26Myles Turner Upgraded To Available Friday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (finger) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Friday's clash with the Thunder. He missed Wednesday's action against Brooklyn with a sprained finger but is ready to get back to work on Friday in a favorable matchup. Turner notched 24 points in this season's first meeting with OKC, and it's a clash against a team that has the fourth-lowest rebounding rate in the league. Turner's return puts Jalen Smith back into the second unit.

Thu Apr 421:23Myles Turner Questionable For Friday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (finger) is questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 28-year-old missed Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets with a sprained finger and could potentially sit out a second game. The Pacers currently hold the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference, and they hope to have their starting center back in the lineup, as every game holds vital importance as the season winds down. If Turner is unable to suit up, Jalen Smith, who had eight points with nine boards, two blocks, and a steal on Wednesday, would likely earn another start. At the same time, Obi Toppin, who had 14 points, eight rebounds, three swats, and a steal, may also benefit if Turner remains sidelined.

Wed Apr 318:29Myles Turner Misses Wednesday's Game
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (finger) has been ruled out for Wednesday's clash with the Nets. He sprained a finger in Monday's matchup against Brooklyn, and Indiana has downgraded him from questionable to out. Jalen Smith took over the center role in the first unit following Turner's injury on Monday and figures to play a pivotal role again in Wednesday's rematch. Brooklyn is a vulnerable team against centers, and Smith also didn't have any trouble filling up the box score against them on Monday, finishing with 17 points and 10 rebounds in 16 minutes. Isaiah Jackson will also feature more in the rotation without Turner.

Tue Apr 216:50Myles Turner Questionable With Sprained Finger
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (finger) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. After spraining his right finger in Monday's blowout win over Brooklyn, the All-Star big man's status remains uncertain after he reportedly visited a hand specialist on Tuesday. Jalen Smith and Isaiah Jackson are the next men up on Indiana's depth chart at center, with one of the two likely joining the Pacers' starting five if Turner is unavailable on Wednesday. In 18 games without Turner since 2022-23, Smith is averaging 12.7 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.0 three-pointers and would likely be the preferred fantasy streamer of the two big men despite a tough matchup against rim protector Nicolas Claxton.

Mon Apr 122:22X-Ray Comes Back Negative For Myles Turner
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (finger) received an X-ray on his hand after dislocating his right index finger during Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The X-rays came back negative for any fractures which means a drastically shorter recovery time. Head coach Rick Carlisle said that they don't know his status just yet for their next game on Wednesday, but it sounds like it shouldn't be too much missed time for Turner. The Pacers are trying to hang on to the sixth seed in the East and avoid the play-in tournament right now. If Turner has to miss a game, Jalen Smith would receive the biggest boost.

Mon Apr 120:44Myles Turner Won't Return To Monday's Game
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hand) was forced to exit early during Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The big man injured his finger during his contest, but it's not believed to be a significant issue. The Pacers will hold him out of the rest of this contest, which is a shame because Turner was on a defensive tear before exiting. Jalen Smith figures to play a bigger role in the second half of this contest. The Pacers should have more information on Turner following Monday's game.

Wed Feb 2115:53Myles Turner Off Thursday’s Injury Report
The Indiana Pacers have removed Myles Turner (illness) from the injury report ahead of Thursday's contest versus the Detroit Pistons. An illness held Turner out of Indy's final tilt before the All-Star break, but he's cleared to play in the first outing of their four-game homestand. The 27-year-old two-time blocks champion is in a great spot against Detroit, who are surrendering the fourth-most points per game (122.0) this season. Make sure Turner is inserted in all season-long fantasy lineups.

Sun Feb 413:19Myles Turner Still Questionable On Sunday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) remains questionable heading into Sunday evening's game against the Hornets. The 2015 No. 11 overall pick has been battling a sprained left ankle, keeping him off the floor for Friday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings. Jalen Smith (back) was also unavailable, so Isaiah Jackson entered the starting lineup and finished with 10 points, eight rebounds, and two steals in 27 minutes. Nonetheless, Turner was at shootaround on Sunday morning, meaning his odds of playing have seemingly improved. But if Turner or Smith miss Sunday's contest, Jackson is still worth considering for deep-league fantasy lineups.

Fri Feb 218:33Myles Turner Won't Play On Friday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Turner was splitting up the center minutes with Jalen Smith during Thursday's game. However, the big man picked up a left ankle injury during the contest. As a result, Turner will be held out of the second game of this back-to-back set. Smith figures to move into the starting five and see increased playing time. He'll be worth a look as a streaming choice for Friday's slate. Also, Isaiah Jackson could see more playing time but he's not as appealing of a streaming option.

Tue Jan 3018:23Tyrese Haliburton, Myles Turner Will Play Tuesday
Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) and center Myles Turner (back) will play in Tuesday's meeting with the Boston Celtics. Haliburton is back after missing 10 of Indy's past 11 games as management for his strained left hamstring, and he could be eased back into action. That shouldn't stop season-long managers from starting the All-Star floor general, though. Turner missed Sunday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies due to mid back spasms and also belongs in all fantasy lineups.

Tue Jan 3009:18Myles Turner Questionable With Back Issue
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's encounter with Boston. He's been experiencing mid-back spasms and couldn't play Sunday versus Memphis. However, Turner was in Monday's practice, which is a sign that his absence could be limited to only one game. Boston is struggling with injuries on the frontcourt, so this could be a very good matchup for Turner. If he can't play, Jalen Smith (back), Isaiah Jackson, and Pascal Siakam should share the center minutes, although Smith is also carrying a questionable tag ahead of the contest.

Sun Jan 2814:27Myles Turner Sitting Out On Sunday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) won't play on Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 27-year-old had scored at least 20 points in three of his four appearances ahead of Friday's win over the Phoenix Suns. However, he'll now miss Sunday's game because of back spasms. With Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) still out, Pascal Siakam, Buddy Hield, and Andrew Nembhard could lead the way offensively, giving all three men added value in all fantasy setups.

Wed Dec 20 202318:07Pacers Say Myles Turner Is Available Wednesday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Turner fully practiced on Tuesday and has been given the green light to return from a one-game absence on Monday against the Los Angeles Clippers due to bilateral hamstring soreness. The 27-year-old marksman ranks 50th in nine-category per-game fantasy value this year, amassing 16.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and 1.3 three-pointers per game. With interior presence Mark Williams (back) out on the other side for Charlotte, the Hornets may have a hard time keeping Turner in check on Wednesday in a matchup that features the slate's highest implied point total (246.5). Fewer minutes will be available at the five for Obi Toppin and Isaiah Jackson, as Jalen Smith (heel) is also good to go.

Tue Dec 19 202318:31Myles Turner Questionable Wednesday After Practicing
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hamstring) went through a full practice on Tuesday, and he is day-to-day with bilateral hamstring soreness. Turner also acknowledged that it's wise to be cautious when it comes hamstring injuries. The Pacers host the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday, where Turner is officially listed as questionable to make a return from his first absence of the year in Monday's 151-127 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. The 27-year-old rim protector ranks 50th in nine-category per-game fantasy value on the campaign, recording 16.9 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and 1.3 three-pointers per game. Obi Toppin and Isaiah Jackson split the minutes down low against the Clippers and would be plus streaming candidates if Turner remains out on Wednesday, but Indiana badly missed their starting big man's paint presence after Ivica Zubac flattened them with 18 points, 16 boards, and three swats.
