Given his varied skillset, Turner might be the league's most underrated big man. The seven-footer is a dominant entity in the paint on both ends of the floor, while posting career-high rebounding numbers during the 18/19 season with the Pacers.

Unsurprisingly, he carried his brilliance forward to the FIBA World Cup, with his offensive and defensive grit a lone bright spot during an otherwise forgettable campaign for Team USA.

During the 2018/19 campaign, the Pacers center averaged 13.3 points, 7.2 rebounds and a league-leading 2.7 blocks per game on 49% shooting from the floor. For the four-year, $72m contract extension he signed in 2018, Myles has quickly gone to work proving why he's worth every penny the franchise offered him. His ferocious dunks and disrespectful swats are worth watching out for, when he takes to the floor in Mumbai.
