Myles Turner helping Bucks evolve in a way the box score won't reflect

Myles Turner has been a massive asset to the Milwaukee Bucks this season. Turner's raw numbers won't necessarily draw a lot of attention by itself, but what matters the most is how he has allowed Milwaukee to fully commit to a five-out system again with his athleticism and shooting brilliance.

Playing this kind of system is something the Bucks had been forced to give up in Brook Lopez's later years due to his declining athleticism. Lopez of course gave Milwaukee many years of elite rim protection and reliable shooting from beyond the arc, but his mobility gradually declined, which limited the Bucks in certain ways.
