Myles Turner’s departure from the Indiana Pacers to their division rival, the Milwaukee Bucks, was one of the most notable storylines of the offseason. On a recent episode of the Thanalysis Show, hosted by Thanasis Antetokounmpo, the Bucks’ new center shed light on his decision to leave Indiana.
“Pascal was in a contract year. T.J. McConnell was in a contract year. Aaron Nesmith was in a contract year. I could go down the list, but you go through that, and we had a great run. Everybody got taken care of. Everybody got paid because we won,” Turner said. “Then, the next year, we surpassed what we did, we went to the Finals. And all everybody told me was, ‘Myles, just keep your head down. Keep your head down and work. You’re going to get taken care of.’”
