Highlights
As a non-athletic wing player that struggles from beyond the arc, Evan Turner lacks many dazzling highlights. However, that didn’t stop him from putting up some decent nights on the court.
Turner’s best game of the year came on New Year’s Day against the Chicago Bulls. He finished with 22 points on 10-of-14 shooting, six assists and four rebounds.
Turner also came up big in an April 7 matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. He ended the night with 18 points on 8-of-12 shooting, plus four assists and two steals.
However, Evan Turner’s season was much more eventful off of the court. On the morning of Dec. 20, a commercial truck fell down an embankment and into the pool in his backyard. Emergency crews managed to save the driver and remove the vehicle. Turner was in his house at the time, so he was safe.
Turner spoke on the experience from his point of view later that night in the warmups ahead of their game against the Spurs.
