4. Career rebounds in the playoffs for the Pacers (Dale Davis--998 rebounds)

Yes, the Pacers' current roster boasts the likes of Turner along with Pascal Siakam and Obi Toppin. This former Pacer big man was one of a kind.

Dale Davis collected missed shots off the rim like a boss. He did so, especially in the postseason for the Indiana Pacers.

He was two postseason rebounds shy of 1,000 before calling it quits. After his first nine seasons with the Pacers, Davis took his talents to Portland for four seasons and then Golden State for one before returning to the Pacers.

His second stint with Indiana only lasted one season. Davis played 13 more playoff games in his final season with the Pacers. There, he still recorded an average of 6.2 boards a game during the postseason.

Rik Smits is the next closest with 540 rebounds. No other player besides these two has more than 500 during playoff basketball for the Pacers. The likes of Turner, Siakam, and Toppin, or even Tyrese Haliburton, are not even close.

It's possible Haliburton and the rest of the current mainstays for Indiana tackle other records and all-time bests in Pacers' history. But it's safe to say these four records are safe and quite possibly may never be broken.
