Why The Indiana Pacers Do The Deal
The Pacers would have two strong reasons for moving Turner.
Firstly, this man has been the subject of trade rumors for years. By now, one wonders if the relationship between the player and the front office here is damaged. If so, trading Turner is good business.
The second reason is simple. The Pacers are rebuilding. Turner is 27. As a team that should focus on the future, the Pacers could have more suitable players on this roster.
Players like Kuminga, for example. He’s got incredible potential. That’s who the Pacers are trading for here – Green is likely to spend a year with the team until he’s due for a new contract.
