Indiana Pacers: Breaking down Myles Turner’s career-high 8 blocks

Myles Turner had a career-night in the 119-80 win by the Indiana Pacers over the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday night.

Turner would finish with a career-high eight blocks in the thrashing.

The center is currently the Pacers’ sixth all-time leader in blocks with 672 in only five seasons. If able to maintain that pace, he will have the opportunity to surpass Dale Davis’ 904 blocks.

Davis reached that mark in 10 seasons.

It’s no secret that shot-blocking is Turner’s strong suit. The center has had some struggles offensively but has remained a defensive cornerstone for the Pacers as they have navigated through an arduous season.
