3. Myles Turner, Indiana Pacers

Now that Turner’s healthy he’s quickly established himself as one of the best players in this draft class. I’ve been fairly impressed with some of his performances of late, including his 31-point barrage against the Golden State Warriors.

He’s an inside-out big man who can stretch the floor and score and block shots in the low post. He’s even putting up a 19.26 PER so far this season. Turner has all the signs of becoming a stretch center which would be huge for the Pacers given the style of basketball they want to play.

I’m not sure he’s untouchable on every team, but in Indiana that’s the case. The Pacers don’t have another big man with his upside and shooting touch so I don’t see him moving in any deal they could kick around.

Trade Value: Untouchable
