Myles Turner still has PTSD from constant trade rumors
How relieved does it feel for you to finally not be in trade rumors this season? Myles Turner: [Chuckles] Honestly, I still got PTSD from that, so I really didn’t even feel super secure at that. I was kinda expecting at least a rumor or something here and there, but I’m just very fortunate to be in the same position. A little bit… I guess you can say that. I think it was just more of that we had a more clear-cut idea of the direction we were going with so it made it easier for me.

More on this storyline
What was your impression of Tyrese Haliburton before and after he got here to Indy? Myles Turner: The only reason I knew about him was ‘cause of his shot. Everybody is always talking his shooting form, but he was hitting shots, so it was interesting to me to see a player of his stature be as effective as he was. So I really didn’t know him as much of a point guard or as good of a passer as he was. He was just an effective player, so he was someone that was kind of like in their scouting report, but he wasn’t someone that was heavily scouted on with the attention. So when he got here, he really got to break out of his shell, man. It was really dope just to see him take on success so fast. Within a year, a year and half, he’s already an All-Star, like the face of the city, people are embracing him as such. I just think it’s dope just to see him take it all so humbly and do it at such a great pace. -via HoopsHype / February 18, 2024
What are your thoughts on a potential Paul George reunion in Indiana? Myles Turner: PG was my favorite teammate, personally. When I first got here to the league, he’s someone who took me under his wing, and obviously he’s one of the most dynamic players that’s out there right now. And I’ve always enjoyed and appreciated his approach to the game, so he’s definitely someone I rock with. -via HoopsHype / February 18, 2024
Clutch Points: Charles Barkley: “I bet it’s probably fun for [Myles Turner] being at home for the All-Star Game… Being able to sleep in your own bed, that’s the best thing for him this weekend.” Draymond Green: “I think he may look forward to road trips more” 😅 pic.twitter.com/9v8M0L4pI4 -via Twitter @ClutchPointsApp / February 17, 2024
