How many Indiana Pacers’ players are among the NBA’s top 100 players?
By Joe Lyon
#64 Myles Turner
This ranking for Myles may spark some debate amongst Indiana Pacers’ fans. For one thing, Myles is constantly one of the best defensive big man in the league, often being considered the best shot blocker on planet earth. In addition, he shoots at a ridiculous rate for a big man.
On the other hand, Myles has struggled with injury concerns as of late and this likely hurt his ranking on the list. Additionally, Myles has never quite been able to make the jump to the type of player that can take over a game.
The best way to judge his place on the list is by looking at the players around him. Just ahead of him are Michael Porter Jr. and Robert Williams III. This seems like about the right company for Myles to be in. Behind him on the list? Tyler Herro and Kyrie Irving. Those names could debately be better than Turner, so this feels like an appropriate landing spot for the constant trade-rumored big man.
This is likely where many Pacers fans would feel our place on the list should end. However, the Pacers have more players on the list. Any guesses on who it is?
