Milwaukee Bucks Sign Myles Turner for $107M, Pacers Lose Key Player Amid Luxury Tax Concerns
Myles Turner has signed a four-year, $107 million contract with the Milwaukee Bucks after the Indiana Pacers chose not to re-sign him, citing luxury tax concerns following Tyrese Haliburton's Achilles injury. Despite Turner's desire to remain with the Pacers and the team's reported intention to re-sign him, Indiana's offers never exceeded three years and $60 million, significantly below Turner's market value. The Bucks cleared salary cap space by waiving Damian Lillard, enabling them to offer Turner a lucrative deal, which many see as a strategic move to strengthen their roster. Turner's departure leaves the Pacers facing a significant gap in their lineup, losing both a key defensive presence and a respected locker room leader. With Haliburton likely sidelined for the season, the Pacers are now focused on rebuilding, maintaining cap flexibility, and preparing for the 2026 draft. This shift highlights the difficult balance NBA teams must strike between competitiveness and financial constraints under the current collective bargaining agreement.
