In Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics, Pacers’ Myles Turner headed to the locker room during the second quarter due to a potential injury.
Before leaving the court, Turner had a modest performance, contributing 2 points, 1 assist, and 1 rebound in 13 minutes, remaining relatively quiet in this critical elimination game.
In contrast, Turner’s showing in Game 3 was far more impressive. He amassed 22 points (hitting 9 out of 16 field goals, 0 out of 3 from three-point range, and 4 out of 4 free throws), grabbed 10 rebounds, and added an assist over 39 minutes.
Despite Turner’s strong play, the Pacers faltered late in the game, ultimately losing 114-111 to the Celtics. At halftime of Game 4, the Pacers trail by a narrow margin, 58-57. Sources indicate that Turner’s injury is not serious, and he is likely to return to the court in the second half.
