Myles Turner tallied 21 points (8-of-16 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), 14 rebounds, one assist, six blocks and two three-pointers in Thursday’s loss to the Wizards.
Unfortunately for the Bucks, it appears that Giannis Antetokounmpo going down with a calf strain was what fully unlocked Turner. After going off for 31 points in Tuesday’s loss to the 76ers, he finished Thursday’s defeat with his best all-around line of the season. Turner’s double-double was his third of the season; the rebound tally was a season-high, and he matched his previous high in blocks. Over the past two weeks, Turner has been a top-5 player in eight-cat formats.
