This Blazers-Pacers Trade Involves Myles Turner To Portland

NBA Analysis Network

Neither the Portland Trail Blazers nor Indiana Pacers have begun the 2021-22 NBA season like they have wanted to, but each team is dealing with some separate problems. In Portland, Damian Lillard has not looked like himself and this team is dealing with a lot of inconsistency problems as a whole. 

C.J. McCollum has looked like an All-Star through the first couple of weeks of the new season, but guys like Norman Powell, Jusuf Nurkic and Robert Covington have struggled to be consistent players on this roster. 

In Indiana, Domantas Sabonis has once again looked like an All-Star talent, but the Pacers are continuing to battle the injury bug within their locker room. Caris LeVert is finally working his way back onto the court, but as he comes back, Malcolm Brogdon has gone out of the rotations due to a nagging left hamstring injury. 

With T.J. Warren still out and the Pacers looking for answers, it is not crazy to believe that this could finally be the year that they trade Myles Turner. The defensive stud has constantly found his name in trade rumors around the league and with the Pacers sitting in last place in the Eastern Conference early on in the year, they could be eager to make a move while they can.
