LAS VEGAS -- Myles Turner broke his silence Thursday via a letter on social media regarding his surprise departure from the Indiana to Milwaukee, before verbalizing those thoughts Friday at Las Vegas Summer League flanked alongside coach Doc Rivers and general manager Jon Horst.
"For me, ultimately it was about just staying competitive," Turner said. "Two years ago, we got to the Conference Finals. Obviously, last year we got to the Finals. Being a big part of winning basketball just changed my entire perspective on this league. I saw a chance to remain competitive here.
