The Milwaukee Bucks have signed a new center to help man their frontcourt. Long-term rival, Myles Turner, is ready for a change of scenery after spending the last 10 seasons with the Indiana Pacers. The two-time block champion will be paired with superstar, Giannis Antetokounmpo, provided the team does not move on from their franchise cornerstone this offseason. Turner’s deal is reportedly for $107 million with a player option for the fourth year. It also includes a 15 percent trade kicker.
Originally, the expectation was that Myles Turner would re-sign with the Indiana Pacers. However, this would have pushed the Pacers into the luxury tax. Not to mention, the Pacers are expected to look much different next season. Especially with superstar point guard, Tyrese Haliburton, rehabbing from a torn Achilles that he unfortunately suffered in the NBA Finals. Turner is hoping a fresh start will give him another chance at his first ring. However, much of that will depend on what happens with Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks.
