Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. The big man was considered questionable heading into this contest due to lower back soreness. His absence should free up additional playing time for Daniel Theis and Isaiah Jackson. Both players have surprisingly been producing lately, but Jackson is the better option between the two. The defensive ability of Jackson makes him the better fantasy option for Monday's slate.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) is questionable ahead of Monday's meeting with Utah. He's dealing with lower back soreness, and with the All-Star break right around the corner, he may get a night off. If Turner doesn't suit up, Isaiah Jackson, who's averaged 10.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 3.4 blocks in five starts this season, will become a must-start fantasy option. At the same time, Jalen Smith could also benefit if Turner isn't available, although Jackson has a higher ceiling.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner logged only 24 minutes of action in Sunday's 122-103 defeat to Cleveland, but he still led all scorers with 27 points and added 10 rebounds, one steal and three blocks to his line. He finished with a 9-for-18 record from the field and went 2-for-6 from downtown while sinking all of his seven free throws. Centers typically struggle against Cleveland's Twin Towers in Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley, but Turner has been in good form lately and managed to carry it over into the new week. He'll be heading into Wednesday's matchup against Miami with a three-game double-double streak.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner has agreed to an extension with the organization. This is an interesting development given the trade rumors surrounding Turner. The big man gets a two-year deal worth $60 million. This doesn't mean Turner can't be traded, but the likelihood does decrease. Turner has been playing at a high level this season as the Pacers are surprisingly in the playoff race. This extension isn't great news for the fantasy value of Isaiah Jackson. Although, Turner could still be moved at the deadline, so it might not be time to give up on Turner yet.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) will be available for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This is good news after the big man was listed as questionable coming into this game due to knee soreness. Fellow big man Isaiah Jackson will come off the bench with Turner cleared to play. There won't be as much fantasy value for Jackson with the second unit. However, he is worth holding with the trade deadline looming and Turner being a possible trade candidate.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks due to a right ankle sprain. The 26-year-old has been able to play the last six games since returning from back spasms that kept him out for three games. Since then, he's been averaging 19.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks per game. If he can't suit up on Friday, however, Isaiah Jackson would be a decent streaming option and Jalen Smith should see some added time off of the bench.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner had a nice comeback game on Monday against Milwaukee, leading the team with 30 points in a 132-119 loss. He went 5-for-9 with the three-ball and shot 11-for-17 overall, adding eight rebounds and two assists to his tally with four blocks. Turner was back on the court after missing three games with a back issue. He logged 36 minutes, so it looks like he's back to full health. The Pacers star has now scored 59 points across his last two outings and the next matchup against the Thunder should also be a productive one for Turner. OKC are a weak rebounding team and centers have shot 56.3 percent from the field against them this season.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) has been tagged as questionable again for the Monday night contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. Turner is still suffering from back spasms that have kept him out of the last three games. Since he's been sidelined, Isaiah Jackson has been the top streaming option with Jalen Smith seeing a lot of fluctuation in his minutes. Jackson will be the best bet for fantasy managers looking for frontcourt help until Turner comes back.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The big man will miss his third straight game due to back spasms. His absence will mean that Isaiah Jackson will slide into the starting five once again. Jackson is coming off a seven-block performance, so his defense alone makes him worth looking at in fantasy leagues. Also, Jalen Smith and Oshae Brissett should have bigger roles in the rotation with the Pacers banged up. Both players have some deep league appeal for Saturday's slate.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (back) has been tagged as questionable against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday with back spasms. The 26-year-old was unable to suit up for the team's last contest on Wednesday for the same reason. If he has to miss a second game, Jalen Smith will see an increase in usage with the starting lineup while Isaiah Jackson and Goga Bitadze should see more minutes off of the bench. The former would be the best streaming option but isn't as widely available as the latter two.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner led all scorers with 29 points and had four blocks in Sunday's 116-111 win over Charlotte. He shot 10-for-16 from the field and 8-for-10 at the charity stripe with a 1-3 effort from deep, capping off the big performance with a spectacular block on a Mason Plumlee dunk attempt 12 seconds from the end. Turner also had nine rebounds in the game and picked up one steal. The Hornets continue the get hammered by opposing bigs, and Turner has now had two big performances against them this season. He will have a much more difficult night in the next matchup against the Knicks, who boast the No. 1 defensive in the league against centers and whose rebounding numbers are strong.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner had his third 30-point effort of the season on Saturday, leading his squad with 34 points in a 131-130 victory over the Clippers. He finished with 11-for-17 shooting from the field and was 10-for-10 at the foul line with a 2-for-5 effort from deep. In 34 minutes, Turner also collected three rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block. Facing the Clippers has been very pleasant for big men all year, with Tyronn Lue's crew allowing opposing centers to shoot 59 percent from the field. The next couple of games against Toronto and Philadelphia are going to be much trickier for Turner, who can be very inconsistent with his work on the offensive end. The 26-year-old is averaging 16.7 points for the whole campaign with 7.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocks.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner anchored the defense as well as anyone could have asked for, while the team upset the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 26-year-old big man finished with 14 points, 12 rebounds, three assists, and six blocks as he shot 6-for-11 from the floor and 2-for-4 from beyond the arc. Turner is third in the league right now in both total blocks and blocks per game. That combined with his solid scoring and rebounding numbers have put him in the top 25 in fantasy basketball.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hamstring) has been tagged as questionable. He's dealing with right hamstring soreness at the moment. He was able to play the full game on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves so it seems to be some lingering pain that might be going on. If he's unable to play, Jalen Smith will likely move into the center spot in the starting five, and Aaron Nesmith could join the starters as he did when Turner missed their game against the Golden State Warriors. In that case, Smith and Oshae Brissett would be the better streaming options.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hamstring) will play during Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Turner missed their last game, but appears good to go here. There is no word on him being limited, so fantasy managers should make sure to get him in your lineups. Jalen Smith will sit this game out, which will result in more playing time for Isaiah Jackson and Oshae Brissett. Between the two, Jackson has more upside, but it depends on how many minutes they get on Wednesday.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hamstring) is questionable ahead of Wednesday's meeting in Minnesota. Turner was a late addition to the injury report before Monday's win over Golden State because of hamstring soreness. As a result, Jalen Smith benefited, with the 22-year-old finishing with 15 points, nine rebounds, and three blocks. While Smith has played well enough in 2022-23 to warrant fantasy consideration whenever he's on the floor, he's should be a lock for managers if Turner remains out.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner scored a game-high 37 points during the win over New Orleans. Turner was efficient from the field. However, more impressively, he went 4-for-7 from deep and sank all 11 of his free throws. He also added 12 rebounds and three blocks. The 26-year-old easily had his best game of the season on Monday night. While his talent is rarely questioned, his inability to remain healthy has been a significant burden for fantasy managers. As long as he remains on the floor, he should at least be a routine contributor defensively for category participants. Yet, while he can get it going offensively, he's inconsistent on the scoring end at times.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) is questionable to play Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls. Turner was able to get through the team's walkthrough this week and he hopes to be able to play at some point during the team's upcoming four-game road trip. The fact that Turner is listed as questionable for the first game of the road trip is a good sign. If Turner is able to go, expect Isaiah Jackson to return to the bench and Goga Bitadze would take a hit as well. Jaylen Smith is a player to watch as we have yet to see him and Turner share the floor together this season.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) was able to get in a solid workout during Monday's shootaround, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. He is hopeful that Turner will be able to return at some point during the current road trip. Turner tweaked his ankle during warmups ahead of the season opener. The expectation was that he'll miss a week of action, but he might end up missing more time. He has already been ruled out for Monday's game, but possibly he can play on Wednesday. Jalen Smith, Isaiah Jackson and Goga Bitadze will be asked to pick up the slack with Turner sidelined. Jackson has the highest upside out of the three of them.

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) is expected to miss at least one week of action after suffering a very unfortunate injury. The 26-year-old shot-blocking machine wasn't able to play in the team's season opener on Wednesday because he strained his left ankle by stepping on a ball boy's foot. Terry Taylor replaced Turner in the starting lineup against Washington and we should see plenty more of him now. Other frontcourt players like Jalen Smith and Isaiah Jackson are also set to benefit from Turner's absence, although the latter was fairly quiet throughout Wednesday night.
