I hadn’t really noticed that he was gone in the first place (Sabonis is bae), but Myles Turner is back! Somehow the news of his injury had escaped me; I figured I wasn’t doing highlights of him because he was in a slump of epic proportions. Nope! He was injured, and now he’s back, and he’s ready to shoot those jumpers that made me so hyped for him in the first place.
If you’re wondering if I’m regretting saying that he could be better than Jabari Parker and that I was more hyped for him than Jabari Parker, I don’t regret a thing. Where is Jabari right now? Still busy being injured like he has been for the past forever. I’ll take the guy with two intact knees and the money midrange (now three-point) jumper, please and thank you.
With his dad in attendance once again (who would win in a fight between his dad and Nurkic’s dad????? taking bets rn), he made it rain from the perimeter, hitting a bunch of threes and also some deep twos. Layups? Pffft. If it’s in the paint, he doesn’t want it.
