The Minnesota Timberwolves' expensive contract extension may have the Indiana Pacers keeping My Lesserner

Miles Turner left the Indiana Pacers and multiple factors were involved in his exit.

For years, Miles Turner has been involved in trade rumours, but his commitment to the Indiana Pacers never wavered.

That’s why it was a huge shock for the Pacers to sign the Milwaukee Bucks in a different way with free agency Turner.

After helping the Pacers reach the NBA Finals, Turner was in demand and the Bucks signed him a four-year, $107 million deal.

Miles Turner, leaving the Indiana Pacers, was an unexpected move, claiming that both sides weren’t too far apart in their pay.

One aspect that influenced the Pacers’ decision was the move from the Minnesota Timberwolves.

ESPN reports that the Timberwolves’ move to re-sign Naz Reid at a high price has had a ripple effect on the pacers, putting a cost on Miles Turner.

The report stated: “Minnesota signed the Center last week’s five-year, $125 million contract, complicating negotiations for Paiser Turner.

“Final team starter Turner has justified why he believes that Minnesota’s backup big man is worth more than $25 million a year.”

Turner signed a four-year deal with the Milwaukee Bucks, which is more than Naz Reid, for $26.75 million a year, for $26.75 million a year.

The impact of Naz Reid’s Timberwolves extension on Myles Turner is a reminder that the Pacers will have an advantage for teams who move early.

One transaction could set the tone for another contract, and if the Indiana Pacers were faster, Naz Reid’s deal might not have had much impact on negotiations.

Now they are looking for alternatives to reinforce their teams. This is already without Tyrese Halliburton next season after Achilles’ injury.

Former NBA star Patrick Beverly believes that Halliburton’s injury is a key factor for the Pacers who decided not to put all their energy into extending Turner.
