Did we ever find out what illness Myles had that kept him from practice and shoot around for 4-5 days around games 4-6? Man played through feeling terrible and looked like death on the bench for a game or two.


So much has happened since then i completely forgot about that.

Sources informed RG that Pacers center Myles Turner played despite battling a respiratory illness. Turner logged 30 minutes, contributing nine points, two rebounds, one assist, one steal and five blocks. Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said postgame Turner might be unable to practice Thursday.

I assumed it was strep or something. Nothing factual to base that off of rather than a blind guess by respiratory and time frame, while still being able to play… :dontknow:

Hollinger's piece reappeared as part of a live blog.

Turner’s BORD$ value is $31 million; while there is no chance of him getting this much in a market with no viable alternate suitors, it does indicate a figure for the Pacers to at least approach if they want him to sign for multiple years.

Is three years for $75 million to $80 million fair? Even at $25 million a pop, Turner’s next deal would take the Pacers sailing past the first apron and represent a first-ever foray into the tax for Indiana. That’s for 2025-26; extending Bennedict Mathurin could push the Pacers to the second apron in 2026-27. Some tough decisions will need to be made at some point about other spots on the roster, but if you’re not willing to pay the luxury tax for the franchise’s best team in a quarter century, sell it to someone who will.
