Can score and protect the frame! The Pacers inner pillar has almost no problem except for the more mistakes.

In a previous NBA Finals G1 game, the Indiana Pacers completed a comeback in the final quarter and narrowly defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder who played at home with a quasi-final win of the backcourt core Tyrese Haliburton. After this game, the Pacers took the lead in the series, leading the opponent 1-0 with a total score, and gaining a psychological advantage.

In this game, Myles Turner, the Pacers' inside pillar, performed well. Turner played 27 minutes and 36 seconds in the game, made 5 of 10 shots, 2 of 5 from outside the three-point line, and 3 of 4 free throws, scoring 15 points, 9 rebounds and 3 blocks, including 5 frontcourt rebounds, 6 turnovers and 3 fouls, with plus or negative values ​​of +8. Although Turner didn't make many shots on the offensive end, he also showed his comprehensive scoring ability. He also scored a lot of points through various methods, which provided a lot of support for the team. His performance in frontcourt rebounds is also very outstanding. Not only that, Turner also showed outstanding ability to protect the basket on the defensive end. Turner has performed his due level on both ends of the offense and defense. If he can control his mistakes, his performance will also be higher. In any case, it is not easy for him to perform like this in a game of this level.

In the NBA regular season this season, Turner played 72 games in 82 games, averaging 30.2 minutes per game, averaging 15.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.8 steals and 2 blocks, and 1.7 turnovers and 2.5 fouls, shooting percentage of 48.1%, three-point shooting percentage of 39.6%, and free throw shooting percentage of 77.3%. In the playoffs, Turner averaged 30.2 minutes in the first 17 games, with averaging 15.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.6 steals and 2.3 blocks, and 1.8 turnovers and 3 fouls. He shot 52.4% from the field, 40.3% from three-point shooting percentage and 77.5% from free throws.

Turner's performance during the playoffs this season is very stable. His offensive efficiency has always been maintained at a high level, and he is also able to maintain excellent basket protection ability on the defensive end. Considering that several opponents the Pacers have excellent players in the interior position, it is even more commendable that Turner can maintain such performance in this situation. Being able to maintain such stability throughout the playoffs further shows that Turner is a seriously underrated player. The data looks mediocre, but Turner is actually a top inside player in the league with both offense and defense?
