scored 24 points, grabbed 16 rebounds, and had 3

January 22nd, 2015 vs Golden State Warriors
Myles becomes one of the youngest players in NBA
history to score 30 points in a game, and did it
both off the bench, and against the best defensive
team in the NBA. This game probably more than
any other showed the offensive capabilities of the
young big man.

February 19th, 2016 vs Oklahoma City Thunder
In the middle of his rookie-of-the-month campaign,
Myles helps the Pacers get one of their best road
wins of the season vs the Thunder, 101-98. Myles
hits his first ever 3-point field goal in the final
minute of the game to tie the score.

THAT BLOCK
January 29th, 2016 vs Atlanta Hawks
The most important story of Turner’s rookie season
was how his inclusion into the starting lineup
after missing 6 weeks with a thumb injury revived
the Pacers’ flailing performances. January 29th
was that game, and Myles responded to getting
the starting nod with 20 points on an incredibly
efficient 9 of 11 shooting.
February 1st, 2016 vs Cleveland Cavaliers
The block heard round the world, Myles swats “the
King” at the rim late in the 4th quarter and sets
the internet ablaze. Had the Pacers pulled out the
heated home win against the Cavs, his 14 point, 10
rebound performance would be rated near the top.
