Myles Turner is one of the most underrated young talents in the NBA. The 22-year-old’s mix of locking down the paint with his long-range shooting makes him the perfect modern NBA center. If there’s any knock on the Indiana Pacers’ game, it’s he could get stronger. Well, Turner took that criticism to heart and got cut.
Turner posted a before and after photo of his offseason training and the incredible progress he’s made.

It’s incredibly reminiscent of Pacers teammate Victor Oladipo getting ripped in 2017, where he made a similar transformation from good to amazing shape.
Turner’s training regimen is clearly working. With a full summer ahead of him, expect Turner to get even more ripped and add a new dimension to his game as he’ll be able to bang in the post with his new muscles.
The Pacers should be thrilled with Turner’s determination in getting fitter and his progress thus far.
