Myles Turner

The Indiana Pacers have toyed with the idea of breaking up their frontcourt duo of Domantas Sabonis and Myles Turner for a while now. After offering Turner, a rotation player and a first-round draft pick to the Boston Celtics last year for Gordon Hayward, the team will find a taker for Turner this offseason.

That taker will be the Charlotte Hornets. Indiana will take a swing at landing Hayward for a second consecutive year and this time they will get their guy. Hayward will return home to the Indiana Pacers with the Hornets landing Turner.

Charlotte has a big hole at the center spot to fill with Cody Zeller and Bismack Biyombo both entering free agency. Turner will assume the starting center role, giving Charlotte a versatile big man in the middle.

The former Longhorn led the NBA with 3.4 blocks per game this season and is one of the most elite rim protectors in the league.

Myles Turner will help shore up the Hornets’ defense as their anchor while also providing some floor spacing offensively. An already dynamic offensive group should have even more room to operate with Turner in the fold.
