Myles Turner and the Indiana Pacers faced off against the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 3 of the opening round. With the final score of 121-118, the Pacers now lead the series 2-1.

However, before the thrilling game ensued, it was Turner's entrance into the Gainbridge Fieldhouse arena that stole the spotlight. The athlete was wearing loose black pants paired with a St. Laurent leopard coat. The $7500 (according to Buyma) leopard coat flowed flawlessly on Turner’s giant stature.

The Pacers lost Game 1 to the Bucks, mainly due to defensive struggles against Damian Lillard. The final score was 109-94, despite a game-high 36-point performance by Pascal Siakam.

However, Indiana bounced back in Game 2. They won the game by 125-108, with all their starters scoring in double figures and four players scoring 20 or more points. Siakam led the charge with 37 points, shooting 16 of 23 from the field and 3 of 4 from the three-point line.

Game 3 saw the Pacers capitalize on the chance to seize the lead as they hosted the Bucks for a key home game. Giannis Antetokounmp-less Bucks fell to the Pacers with a close score of 121-118, despite Khris Middleton's (who was nursing a sprained ankle) playoff career-high 42 points.

Myles Turner's performance against the Bucks in this series

Myles Turner is one of the best rim protectors in the league but has never made an All-Star selection. A block leader in 2019 and 2021, his ability to block shots and make occasional three-pointers is beyond question.

In Game 1, Turner played poorly on both ends of the floor, shooting less than 30% from the field and failing to register any blocks in 33 minutes of play.

However, in Game 2, he played a crucial role for the Pacers to even the series at 1-1. He logged 34 minutes on the hard court, registering 22 points, 6 assists and 3 while shooting 60% from the field and 50% from the three-point line.

In Game 3, Turner led the Pacers in scoring with 29 points. Although the game went into overtime at 111-111, the team secured a win with Tyrese Haliburton's clutch shot in the final seconds.

Game 4 will begin at 7 p.m. ET on Sunday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
