Turner has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Magic due to right knee injury management.

Pacers' Myles Turner: Swats five shots in double-double
Rotowire
Turner ended with 14 points (4-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and five blocks across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 104-98 win over the Wizards.
Turner didn't have a good shooting performance and needed 13 shots to score 14 points, but he delivered value in other categories, mainly as a rebounding threat and a massive rim protector. This was Turner's fourth straight game with multiple blocks, a span in which he's averaging 19.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 4.0 swats per contest.

Pacers' Myles Turner: Scores 24 points, swats three shots
Rotowire
Turner contributed 24 points (8-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 31 minutes during Sunday's 125-120 win over the Nuggets.
Turner had a bigger role on offense Sunday, as Tyrese Haliburton was limited to nine points and Pascal Siakam (elbow) wasn't available, and that translated to Turner leading the Pacers in scoring. He's scored 20-plus points while swatting multiple shots in his last two outings, averaging 16.3 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 2.2 blocks per game in 18 outings since the beginning of March.

Pacers' Myles Turner: Comes close to double-double
Rotowire
Turner finished with 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt), nine rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 119-105 win over the Hornets.
Turner returned to the starting lineup after a one-game absence and posted a solid outing, showing an efficient touch from the floor and ending just one rebound away from a double-double. He also recorded multiple blocks for the fifth time in his last eight appearances, as Turner remains an impact defender who can protect the rim at a high level. Turner should play a key role for the Pacers down the stretch and in the postseason. He's averaging 16.2 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, 1.7 assists and 0.8 steals per game since the All-Star break.

Pacers' Myles Turner: Strong two-way play Wednesday
Rotowire
Turner notched 18 points (6-8 FG, 5-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 111-91 win over the Raptors.
Turner recorded at least two tallies in four of the five major categories, but aside from posting a double-double and leaving his mark defensively, the most surprising stat was the fact that he went 5-for-5 from beyond the arc.
