The Indiana Pacers have been no strangers to trades this year. It began when they sent Victor Oladipo to Houston and since then, other big names have been featured in deals. This could be a busy NBA offseason for the Pacers when it comes to sending some names away.
It could begin with Myles Turner. After Oladipo, players like Domantas Sabonis and Malcolm Brogdon began beginning the focal point of many deals. Turner has been put aside but he seems like the most-realistic trade target.
Indiana needs to shake things up after and an underwhelming regular season that saw them near the bottom of the Eastern Conference. It is likely that the Pacers make some moves but it is all about which they would like to get done first.
The Charlotte Hornets should be in the market for any big man available and Turner is a good one. The Hornets are completely setup in the backcourt with the likes of LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier.
