| Thu Apr 2 | 20:05 | Myles Turner Cleared to Return Friday |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (ankle) is off the injury report and expected to play Friday against the Celtics after missing one game. Turner has been limited lately, averaging 8.4 points, 2.0 three-pointers, 4.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 1.8 blocks in 23.0 minutes across his last five games, making him more of a category specialist than a must-start option. His return likely pushes Pete Nance back to a reserve role after Nance produced 23 points with five three-pointers in 40 minutes as a spot starter. Turner remains a viable option for managers needing blocks, while Nance could retain deep-league appeal. |

| Wed Apr 1 | 19:45 | Myles Turner Won't Play on Wednesday |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. This appears to be a rest day for Turner during the second leg of the back-to-back set. Turner returned to the lineup on Tuesday and finished with 10 points, eight rebounds, and four blocks in 27 minutes of action. The Bucks aren't playing for anything at this point in the season, so it's not shocking to see them resting players. Jericho Sims should get the start at center, while Pete Nance and Ousmane Dieng see increased roles as well. Sims could have some deep league streaming value or a cheap DFS option for Wednesday's slate. |

| Tue Mar 31 | 07:18 | Myles Turner Available Against Mavericks |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (knee) hasn't been listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The former Pacer is set to return to the lineup after sitting out Sunday's loss to the Clippers due to right patella tendinopathy. Jericho Sims started at center against the Clippers and will likely resume a backup role on Tuesday night. Turner's first year with the Bucks has been disappointing, and his numbers in March have been especially underwhelming. Over 13 games, the veteran big man has averaged 8.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals. |

| Sun Mar 29 | 14:28 | Myles Turner Gets Downgraded to Out |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (knee) has been downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Turner won't be able to shed the questionable tag and will sit out the second leg of this back-to-back set. Fantasy managers should consider Turner as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Jericho Sims and Pete Nance should be asked to play big roles on Sunday. Sims is coming off a double-double on Saturday and is well worth a look as a DFS option with the Bucks shorthanded for this game. |

Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (calf) could miss a second consecutive game on Saturday against the San Antonio Spurs, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. The veteran big man was sidelined by calf soreness earlier this week. Bobby Portis (wrist) and Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) are also battling health issues, which has boosted the playing time of Jericho Sims, Pete Nance, and Taurean Prince. All three could again have more importance on Saturday. |

| Thu Mar 19 | 20:09 | Myles Turner Set to Return Versus Jazz |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (calf) will play Thursday against the Jazz after missing one game, likely sending Jericho Sims back to a reserve role. Turner has been somewhat inconsistent this season but remains a usable fantasy option when active, especially for managers needing three-pointers from the center spot.

Bobby Portis could see fewer minutes with Turner back, while Ryan Rollins should continue handling backcourt usage. |

| Wed Mar 18 | 20:44 | Myles Turner Questionable Versus Jazz |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (calf) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Jazz after missing Tuesday's loss to Cleveland. If he sits again, Jericho Sims would likely remain in the starting lineup, though he produced just four points and six rebounds in 16 minutes in his last start and offers limited fantasy appeal. Bobby Portis could be the main beneficiary after recording 19 points, nine rebounds, four assists, and three three-pointers in 33 minutes, making him a strong fantasy playoff option. Turner managers should consider a fallback option with fantasy playoffs underway. |

Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Turner has been dealing with a lingering knee issue, but will actually sit this game out due to a calf injury. The Bucks are going to be thin with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) also sidelined for this game. Bobby Portis should play a significant role, with Jericho Sims and Pete Nance also seeing more action on the court. Portis is looking like a must-start, while Sims and Nance are viewed as deep league options. |

| Tue Mar 17 | 08:41 | Myles Turner Questionable to Suit Up Tuesday |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (calf) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's home game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The athletic big man is nursing a right calf strain and could miss his first game since Feb. 20. Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) is also considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup, so the trio of Bobby Portis, Jericho Sims, and Pete Nance may need to carry Milwaukee's frontcourt. While Sims is likely to take Turner's spot in the starting lineup, Portis has more fantasy upside. The last time Milwaukee was missing both Antetokounmpo and Turner, Portis finished with 17 points, 11 rebounds, one assist, and one block. |

| Sun Feb 22 | 14:14 | Myles Turner Back on Sunday |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (calf) will return for Sunday's meeting with Toronto after missing the last two contests. Jericho Sims has been rolling with the starters of late, most recently amassing four points, six rebounds, and two blocks in 19 minutes in the recent win over the New Orleans Pelicans. As far as Turner is concerned, he hasn't looked the same since arriving in Milwaukee, averaging 12.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 1.7 blocks. Although his decreased production has been frustrating for managers, he still does enough to warrant starting fantasy consideration whenever he's on the floor. |

| Thu Feb 12 | 19:19 | Myles Turner Will Not Play Thursday |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (calf) will not play Thursday against the Thunder. Turner posted five points, eight rebounds, and two blocks in 31 minutes in his last outing. With Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) also sidelined, Milwaukee's frontcourt minutes are up for grabs. Jericho Sims started on Wednesday and delivered 17 points and 11 rebounds in 36 minutes, making him a strong short-term streamer for rebounds and field goal percentage. Bobby Portis and Ousmane Dieng should also benefit, while Pete Nance could pick up some minutes, but his role is too inconsistent to rely on in most formats. |

| Wed Feb 4 | 19:20 | Myles Turner Active Wednesday |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (ankle) is set to suit up Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Turner was previously listed as probable with a left ankle sprain, but he has since been cleared to play. The 29-year-old big man has missed only two of the Bucks' 48 games so far this season. Fantasy managers should expect Turner to continue producing, as he's put together an impressive five-game stretch, averaging 18.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 2.0 three-pointers, 3.0 blocks, and 1.2 steals per contest over his last five appearances. |

| Fri Jan 23 | 08:48 | Myles Turner Expected to Play Friday vs. Nuggets |
Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner (ankle) is probable to play Friday against Denver after missing one game. His return would tighten Milwaukee's frontcourt rotation, cutting into Bobby Portis' upside after the veteran big delivered 15 points, six rebounds, and nine assists in 37 minutes Wednesday. Turner's recent play has been uneven, averaging 11.2 points and 4.8 rebounds over his last five, which keeps expectations modest. Fantasy managers should view Turner as a low-end hold, while Portis slides from short-term standard-league value back to a capped bench role when Turner is active. |

| Tue Jul 1 2025 | 12:23 | Myles Turner Leaves Indiana, Signs With Milwaukee |
Center Myles Turner, Indiana's longest-tenured player, will play for division rival Milwaukee in the 2025-26 season. The Bucks signed the 29-year-old to a four-year, $107 million deal to replace the outgoing Brook Lopez. ESPN's Shams Charania reports the contract has a player option for the final season and a full 15% trade kicker. Turner will start alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo, with forward Bobby Portis being the primary big off the bench. Injured guard Damian Lillard will be waived for Milwaukee to afford the contract. It seemed like a foregone conclusion that Indiana, one win away from a championship, would bring Turner back. However, with Tyrese Haliburton's Achilles injury, the Pacers' brass seemed hesitant to enter the luxury tax, and they let Turner walk. Indiana is now in the market for a starting-level center. |

| Wed Jun 25 2025 | 10:54 | Re-Signing Myles Turner the "No. 1 Priority" for Pacers |
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner is heading toward free agency, but the team wants to hang on to him. "I don't think it's any secret that the franchise, at this particular moment, that that is the No. 1 priority," Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said about Turner. "I don't know anything about money or numbers or years, or any of that kind of stuff, but Myles is a very important part of what we've done here, what we've been doing." Turner is coming off a two-year, $40 million deal and could double his annual salary with his new contract. The 29-year-old has spent his entire NBA career with the Pacers, nearing 700 regular-season games. Turner had a solid year in 2024-25, averaging 15.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks while shooting a career-high 39.6 percent from deep. |

| Fri Jun 13 2025 | 07:25 | Myles Turner Playing Through Illness |
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner is battling cold symptoms but continues to contribute as much as possible to his team's NBA Finals run. He played 30 minutes in Game 3 and had a few critical defensive plays does the stretch while finishing with nine points, two rebounds, five blocks, a steal, and an assist. It was the most minutes he has played in five games, but Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said, "Myles is under the weather... He just hasn't been feeling well the last couple of days. It was affecting his wind. He won't bring it up, but I think it's just appropriate to mention that he's working through something." Turner is not on the injury report, so he doesn't seem in danger of missing Game 4, but he may be at less than 100% once again. |
