Turner missed 40 games last season, including the final 39, due to a stress reaction in his foot. In the 42 games he played, the Pacers center averaged 12.9 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.8 blocks.

Turner has been in the trade rumor mill for quite some time now. With Indiana looking to embrace a full rebuild, this could be the right time for the Pacers to get some value for the 26-year-old.

Indiana already parted ways with Domantas Sabonis during last season's trade deadline and acquired a promising young stud in Tyrese Haliburton from the Sacramento Kings.

This offseason, they dealt veteran guard Malcolm Brogdon to the Boston Celtics.

Several teams should be interested in acquiring Turner. He's one of the league's best shot blockers and provides reliable three-point shooting as a big man.
