Lakers, Warriors, or Pacers? Myles Turner's Free Agency Landing Spots Revealed
The Indiana Pacers advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals after defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers in five games and will take on either the New York Knicks or the Boston Celtics. However, they have a busy offseason ahead of them. They own their own first-round pick, and starting center Myles Turner will be an unrestricted free agent. Advertisement Turner has long been linked to the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Golden State Warriors have a very clear need in the frontcourt. On league insider recently revealed where Turner is leaning with his decision. Myles Turner free agency Fisher Turner averaged 15.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, and two blocks this season. He shot a solid 48.1 percent from the floor and 39.6 percent from deep, serving as one of the best floor-spacers in the league. While the Lakers and Warriors can offer bigger markets and superstars for him to play next to, Turner has only ever played for the Pacers. On top of that, Indiana did not get eliminated in the earlier rounds like the Lakers and Warriors did, making his choice easy. Advertisement "The rising expectation, league sources say, is that Turner will be extending his stay in the Hoosier State," NBA insider Jake Fischer wrote. Indiana can offer just as much money, if not more, than LA or Golden State, and allow him to be the third-best player on the team, barring a breakout from Bennedict Mathurin or Andrew Nesmith, which would be welcome. Indiana seems ready to march to their first Finals appearance since 2000 this season, and will be able to run things back next year with a similar roster. With the Cavs reeling from an early elimination and the Boston Celtics dealing with injuries and difficult financials, the usually weak Eastern Conference will be the Pacers' for the taking next season, provided they retain Turner.

At this point, Holiday has two years and a player option on a third year left on the four-year, $134.4 million deal he signed with the Celtics. There will not be many teams across the NBA interested in taking on that kind of salary. A new update has been given about Holiday amid the trade rumors. According to a report from NBA insider Jake Fischer, Boston is "most definitely listening" to trade offers for Holiday. During the 2024-25 NBA season, Holiday played in 62 games for the Celtics. He averaged 11.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists, and 1.1 steals per game, while shooting 44.3 percent from the floor overall and knocking down 35.3 percent of his three-point attempts. Those were numbers down from the 2023-24 season. He averaged 12.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 4.8 assists in that campaign, shooting 48 percent from the floor and 42.9 percent from three-point distance. Right now, Holiday is 34 years old. He will turn 35 in June. Read more: Celtics Send Epic Jayson Tatum Message on Sunday Despite his contract and age, Holiday could interest the right contender. He can still play high level defense and is capable of scoring the ball. Perhaps he could have a bounce-back season from a shooting perspective next season as well. Expect to continue hearing a lot of rumors surrounding Boston throughout the coming weeks. Holiday is going to be a name that pops up quite often in the rumor mill. Whether the Celtics trade Holiday or another piece, there is a very good chance that the roster will look different next season. Tatum is also likely to miss most of the year, if not all of it due to the torn Achilles he suffered. For more on the Boston Celtics and general NBA news, head on over to Newsweek Sports.
