Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner is expected to be out for at least a week after spraining his ankle when he landed on a ball boy in Wednesday's pregame warmups, sources told The Athletic's Shams Charania.
Forward Terry Taylor started the season opener in Turner's place, shifting Jalen Smith to center. The Pacers lost 114-107 to the Washington Wizards.
Turner averaged 12.9 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.8 blocks in 42 contests for the Pacers last season. This is his eighth NBA campaign, and he's spent all of them with Indiana.
