NBA:
Turner’s departure to Milwaukee changes Indiana’s interior defense and rim protection. How should fantasy managers recalibrate expectations for the Pacers’ frontcourt?
Qwiket AI:
Turner’s exit leaves a defensive gap and shifts in rim protection. Indiana will lean on younger bigs and switch-ready lineups, elevating Isaiah Jackson’s role and possibly opening minutes for another versatile center. Expect a more perimeter-dependent defense that could impact block rates and interior efficiency. In fantasy terms, value may rise for developing bigs who can protect the rim and stretch the floor, at least until the rotation stabilizes.
