Myles Turner on leaving Indiana: ‘At the end of the day, bro, it’s not a Cinderella story, you know what I mean? I think that’s what how people are trying to form this and though I think the way I viewed it is I wanted to be thankful, for just the people that rock with me the entire time, my 10-year journey in Indiana, but also let them realize that at this time I didn’t made the best decision for my family made the best decision for me and myself going into my prime, and this is how I saw fit. Kyrie Irving: Wait, so there’s a better version of Myles Turner? Myles Turner: Absolutely, I’m evolving.

Myles Turner on joining Bucks: ‘Ultimately it was about just staying competitive’
Left unsaid, the money probably helped, too.

Andrew Nembhard on ESPN broadcast at Summer League. On Myles Turner:
“It was a little shocking when it first happened. Obviously, I loved my time with Myles. It was great being his teammate. He’s done a lot for me, being one of the vets. Excited to see his success over there.” – 9:01 PM

More on this storyline
Kyrie Irving: 86% of our marriages fail in the NBA. That’s an insane number. I don’t think a lot of people know that number, but 86% of our marriages fail. So, you basically shooting damn near 85%. As soon as you soon as you ask to marry somebody, you basically like, “Yo, this got an 85% chance to fail.” Yeah, I obviously focus on the other 15% and 14% of the married couples because there is magic to that, right? It does take a special person. But the reason why I was asking was when you were 18, 19 coming in, you were 19 cuz you were a day apart in terms of March 24th, March 23rd. How was that in terms of your relationship building afterwards? Cuz now you’re getting to know tons of people. Now you’re Myles Turner known by not just thousands but millions of people. How was relationship building after that? Like figuring out who you are? Myles Turner: I’ve grown so much. I’m going into my 30s and my 20s, I look back on I have zero regrets. Zero. Because it was all part of my process. But to answer your question, what I would say is that when I first got in the league, everybody’s going to bow down. “Oh, you’re Myles Turner. You’re the sh*t. You’re this, this, and that.” You got to you got to figure out who to listen to and who to tune out.” Because I think my problem was I listened to everybody. You know, my mind was very impressionable at that age. -via YouTube / July 13, 2025
Myles Turner: ‘Free agency is crazy because, you know, you view yourself one way and then you hope that others view you that way as well across the league. But then you might value yourself a certain way and demand a certain amount of number or a certain number. And then the rest of the league, you know, might be cap space or, you know, there’s only a mid-level exception. ‘We can only offer you this.’ So, you know, it’s a tough world of emotion, to say the least.’ -via YouTube / July 13, 2025
Myles Turner: This basketball thing, this money, it’s amazing, bro. Like chat, I promise you. Kyrie Irving: Yeah we don’t take it for granted, it’s amazing. Turner: But bro, there is just so much more out there. You are nothing without your health. You’re nothing without your wellness. You’re nothing about you’re nothing without the love that surrounds you. And I think that’s something I’ve internalized. I love nature. I really enjoy hiking and being outdoors. I’m more of a mountains over beach kind of guy. -via YouTube / July 13, 2025
