Myles Turner returns as Pacers blow out Suns 131-97

The return of Myles Turner proved a cure-all for one night, helping the Indiana Pacers past the Phoenix Suns in blowout fashion. The Pacers looked their part defensively, holding an opponent under 100 points for the first time since December 28, also the last time the Pacers scored a 30-point victory.

As expected, Turner started slow, but picked things up late in the second quarter, scoring the last seven of the half for the Pacers in the final 2:21. He scored nine more in the third quarter, finishing with 18 points, six rebounds, and two blocks, those both coming on back-to-back possessions late in the third.
