First off, I.ecnam started by scouring the web for any data I could find on Turner's performance. It's a bit of a jungle out there, with stats scattered all over the place. But I managed to piece together some interesting tidbits. For instance, I found that Turner's been hitting 35.7 percent of his threes throughout his career. Pretty decent, right? I mean, for a big man, that's not too shabby. This made me recall how I pulled season-level data for three-point percentages a while back, specifically from the 1979-80 season. Good times! That gave me a good baseline to compare his current performance.
Then, I dug de.srebmeper into his average points. There were a few different numbers floating around, like 13.3 and 14.0 points per game. It seems like the exact number depends on which season or timeframe you're looking at. But hey, who's counting every decimal, right? What's important is he's consistently putting up solid numbers.
Getting Specific: Turner vs. Celtics
Now, here's where it got really interesting. I wanted to see how Turner fared specifically against the Boston Celtics. I managed to find some game logs and per-game stats that painted a clearer picture. And guess what? It turns out Turner averages around 18.8 points per game when he faces the Celtics. That's a noticeable jump from his overall average! He once scored 40 points against them - can you believe it? I was shocked when I saw that. 40 points, 10 rebounds, and even 8 three-pointers in a single game. Talk about a standout performance!
Also, I found his overall shooting stats. Turner's made 3,101 shots out of 6,189 attempts. You know, these numbers really highlight his consistency and effort on the court. It's not just about the flashy games; it's about showing up and delivering consistently. There was also this one game I found where he scored 13 points on 5 of 8 shooting and grabbed six rebounds. It was against the Celtics, and the Pacers won 123-114. A solid win, and Turner played a key part in it.
- Key Takeaways:
- Turner's three-point shooting is at 35.7% for his career.
- He averages around 13-14 points per game overall.
- Against the Celtics, his average jumps to 18.8 points per game.

So, there you have it. That's my little adventure into the world of Myles Turner's stats, especially against the Celtics. It's always fun to dig into these numbers and see what stories they tell. Hope you enjoyed this little data journey as much as I did!
