The 29-year-old surprisingly departed Indiana right after a seven-game NBA Finals appearance. The Milwaukee Bucks waived All-Star point guard Damian Lillard to carve out cap space for Turner, inking the 6-foot-11 Texas product to a four-year, $108.9 million free agent contract.

According to a report from NBA insider Jake Fischer, Indiana has registered interest in free agent big man Deandre Ayton. He was bought out recently by the Portland Trail Blazers, although the Los Angeles Lakers are considered by most to be the front-runner to sign him.

The Indiana Pacers are being linked to a major name that could potentially fill the void left behind by Myles Turner.
