tazdingo 363 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Looking at mock drafts I did, he's disappearing between the 5th-6th rounds and could easily be pure value in a new uptempo pace. The more I read about it, the more I'm liking Indiana's low key drafts who left a somewhat "bleh" taste in people's lineups from last year (Turner & Brogdon). 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Me too i think Brogdon, Turner and even Oladipo will be steals and im targeting Brogdon and Turner later rounds they have fallen in every mock i have done Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RedRaider27 531 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Frustrating to own. I think he really needs a change of scenery. Still could be fantasy gold if he put it all together. I remember his opening night a few years ago and I thought to myself, this kid is gonna be great. Hasn’t happened yet but the talent is obviously there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

apatas 436 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I remind you also that almost every year Turner has been worse than expected. OK, maybe this season expectations have reduced and now he exceeds expectations, but I think we can't hope better than 5th round value, more likely 6th round value.

tazdingo 363 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I will also say that people shouldn't go out of their way & reach for him (I've been burned by him for 2 years in a row as well) but the new coach & system that we are being led to believe will be implemented has been particularly friendly for bigs in the system. The way I see it, taking a shot on Turner in the 6th round is a safer bet than going after someone like Thomas Bryant in the later rounds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jay_00 251 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Don't expect anything more than what he did last season from him. It's kind of disappointing he wasn't traded because he would have way more value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kane 2,862 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 He is basically Brook Lopez with more blocks and less 3s 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan 1,107 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) I like him 6th round. Why not ? Edited December 3, 2020 by Stefan 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fabrar 2,489 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Grabbed him in the 5th round. Hope I didn't reach too much though lol. Hoping a new coach and playstyle will help him in scoring and rebounding a bit more. I'm not too worried about the blocks as those have always been there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BykeINIT 132 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 traded mike conley + terry rozier for him, as i really needed a big ..... he beasted in the playoffs last year, i think he really surprises a lot of people Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theantishere 717 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I’ve had this guy in most of my teams the last two or three seasons. No matter how much he disappoints, I can’t seem to quit him thinking “this is the year he actually puts it all together”. Targeting heavily in the 5th-6th range rn.

CuredMeats 62 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 The lack of rebounds is maddening. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simsanityy179 400 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Y’all do realize that he was a 3rd rounder in 2018-2019, he was a value pick that season after doing crap the season before. The only issue now is that he’s playing power forward next to sabonis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rotojoe 531 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 He is still a very useful player to own, I think. There are almost no shot blockers, and ones who don't hurt you in FT%? Plus get 3's? And he is not just a shot blocker, he is one of the best. 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fachowski 99 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Could see him as a solid 2nd round pick if he went to the Celtics but Danny Ainge got too greedy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I also don’t see much in the way of minutes competition. Resulting marginal increases in counting stats could return him to reasonable value, no? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
