The Indiana Pacers season is officially over and while the team didn’t add to the win column often, there were still many great highlights from the long season.

There were more than five great plays from the Indiana Pacers this season. With just 25 wins this year it is tough to find the highs of winning games because there were so few.

However, finding highs in the growth of the young players and even new output from the veteran players is what I looked for throughout this season.

Myles Turner dunks on three Pelicans for the Indiana Pacers

In late November the Pacers played the Pelicans in what ended up as one of their 25 wins this year. Myles Turner had one of the best time follow to the rim plays of the season when after Chris Duarte’s missed pull-up three-point attempt.

This was just perfectly timed for Myles and the result was posterizing three players who were not ready for the seven-footer to come barreling in for the putback slam.

It is insane how effortless Myles makes this play look here. If you watch closely, you can see Myles “kick it into gear” as soon as Duarte takes the shot in transition.

Myles finished the game with 11 points and 9 rebounds with of course 2 blocked shots.
